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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Waterloo have 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
