Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Washington, IN.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Washington offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than 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 while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
