Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - New Geneva, PA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in New Geneva offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
