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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Milford have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many 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 rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
