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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Ottawa Lake have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that 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 rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
