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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Portland have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
