Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Gas City have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
