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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Hampstead have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many people 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
