Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Abita Springs, LA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Abita Springs have 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 clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only go through short term rehabilitation 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 have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
