Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Oak Ridge, NC.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Oak Ridge offer intensive 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 go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
