Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Bryn Athyn, PA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Bryn Athyn offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center 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.
