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

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

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Fairmount City offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
