Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Columbia, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Columbia offer 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 individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
