Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Homer City have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
