Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Berwyn, PA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Berwyn 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 people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
