Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Penn Run offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
