Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - River Bluff, KY.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in River Bluff offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
