Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Ama, LA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Ama 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 go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
