Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Butner, NC.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Butner have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning 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 people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehabilitation 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 facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
