Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Oakdale, LA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Oakdale offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
