Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Penrose, NC.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Penrose have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
