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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Cherry Point offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
