Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Myerstown have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
