Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Elizabethtown, NC.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Elizabethtown offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
