Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Penn, ND.

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

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Penn have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
