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

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

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Carnegie have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
