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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Edward offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
