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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
