Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Elbing, KS.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, 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 rehabilitation facilities in Elbing offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people 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 many people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
