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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Shickshinny have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that people 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 rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
