Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Ringgold have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
