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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Sterling have 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 people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
