Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Kill Devil Hills, NC.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Kill Devil Hills have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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