Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Walterboro, SC.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Walterboro have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
