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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Melvin have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
