Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Philadelphia offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
