Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Nelsonville, OH.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Nelsonville offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
