Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Westchester, IL.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Westchester have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
