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

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

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Elkland offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
