Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Gilberton, PA.

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

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Gilberton offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
