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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in High Shoals 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

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