Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Knob Lick, KY.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Knob Lick offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
