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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in New Alexandria offer 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 individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
