Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Orwigsburg, PA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Relapse rates are greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility 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.
