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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Sanford offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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