Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Oak Island, NC.

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

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Oak Island offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
