Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Atlas, MI.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Atlas have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term treatment . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
