Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Elbow Lake, MN.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Elbow Lake have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the initial 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 individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only get 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 rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
