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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Midway offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that people 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 treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
