Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Burnsville, MS.

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

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Burnsville offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
