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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Houston offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
