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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Whitehall offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
