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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in St. Francis offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial 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 clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
