Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in De Young offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
