Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Belle Chasse have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
