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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, 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 in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Wilmerding offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility 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 completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
