Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Carthage, NC.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Carthage offer 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. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
