Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Boulder City, NV.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Boulder City offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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