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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Engelhard offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that 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 timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
