Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mill Creek, OK.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Mill Creek offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
