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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Ford Cliff have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
