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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Punxsutawney have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically 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 treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients 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 rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among clients who only receive short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
