Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Wernersville have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
