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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Jefferson offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment 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 people who only go through short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
