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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Dauphin have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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