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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Hunker have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as 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 and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
