Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Georgetown, LA.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Georgetown have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific 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 . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
