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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Northpoint offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that 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 harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only get short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
