Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Alta Vista, KS.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Alta Vista have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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