Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lookout, KY.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Lookout offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed 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 be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
