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

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

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Thornton offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that many clients 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 rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
