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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
