Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Empire, OH.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Empire offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab program 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
