Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Creighton, NE.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Creighton have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment 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 treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

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