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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab 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 treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Stanwood offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program 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 timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
