Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Elmhurst, IL.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Elmhurst offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients 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 timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
