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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Lacombe have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
