Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - East Chicago, IN.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in East Chicago offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals 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 rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
