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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Lakewood offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
