Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Wysox, PA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Wysox offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
