Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Nags Head, NC.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Nags Head offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
