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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Houtzdale have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that 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 more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only go through short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
