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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Jim Thorpe have 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. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
