Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Plumsteadville, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Plumsteadville have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with 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 outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
