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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Oxford have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than 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 physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
