Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Livingston, TN.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Livingston have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which 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 rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
