Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Fairmont, MN.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Fairmont 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 people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with 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 outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
