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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Forest offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals 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 stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program 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.
