Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Ironwood, MI.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
