Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - California, KY.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in California have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
