Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Lansdowne, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Lansdowne have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
