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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Forest City offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many individuals 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 fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
