Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - St. Paris, OH.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in St. Paris offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases 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 physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
