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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center 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.
