Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Arkansas City, KS.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Arkansas City have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially 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 rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
