Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Scotland, SD.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Scotland have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
