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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
