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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Richwood have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
