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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Williamsport offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many 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 fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
