Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Mc Kean, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Mc Kean offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
