Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Derma, MS.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
