Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Selinsgrove, PA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Selinsgrove have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
