Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Horse Cave, KY.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Horse Cave have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases 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 moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
