Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Wellsboro, PA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Wellsboro have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
