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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Grindstone have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
