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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Scottville offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
