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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in West Point have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many people 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 timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only get 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 rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
