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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Gerton offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
