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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in West Alexander 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 go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
