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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Slatington have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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