Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Virgil, SD.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Virgil offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that clients 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 rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
