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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Richlandtown offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially 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 drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in 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 clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
