Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Mount Joy, PA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Mount Joy have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
