Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Hodge, LA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Hodge have 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 services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals 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 treatment facility 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.
