Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Dakota, IL.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Dakota offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
