Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Memphis, NE.

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

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Memphis offer 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
