Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mahaska, KS.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Mahaska offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
