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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Sandy Lake offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
