Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Hickory have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
