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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Macungie offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that people may still be in 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
