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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Middletown have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
