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

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

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Oxford offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that many individuals 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 fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
