Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Mentor, OH.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Mentor offer 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 clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation center 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 stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
