Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hermitage, PA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Hermitage have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
