Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mount Carmel, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Mount Carmel have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be experiencing 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 treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
