Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Druid Hills have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
