Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Joelton, TN.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Joelton have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that individuals 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 specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
