Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Fort Thomas, KY.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Fort Thomas offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
