Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Takoma Park, MD.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Takoma Park have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab 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.
