Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Columbia Falls offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
