Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Germantown, TN.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Germantown 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 clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
