Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Littlestown, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Littlestown offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
