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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Duson offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
