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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Whitney offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
