Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Brooks, MN.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Brooks offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment 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 rehabilitation center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
