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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Medford have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
