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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Norvelt offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
