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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
