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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

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