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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
