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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in St. Marys Point offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among clients who only receive short term treatment . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
