Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in South Wilmington have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as 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 and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
