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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in West Decatur 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only get short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
