Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Gilbertsville, PA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Gilbertsville offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
