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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Plainfield offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
