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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Homer offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
