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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Shawville offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
