Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Banner Elk, NC.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
