Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Whitehorse, SD.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Whitehorse have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
