Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Little Meadows, PA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Little Meadows have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody 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 alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
