Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Greenwood, LA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Greenwood offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
