Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - South Heights, PA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in South Heights have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
