Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Greenwood, SC.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Greenwood have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
