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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Virginia have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
