Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - St. Louis Park, MN.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in St. Louis Park have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
