Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Edgewood, IL.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Edgewood have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
