Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Gilliam, LA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Gilliam offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that 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 timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
