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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
