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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in New London offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
