Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Meadow Lands, PA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Meadow Lands have intensive 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 services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
