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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Patterson have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
