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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Smethport have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
