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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Oakland have 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
