Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Pocahontas, TN.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

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

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only receive short term treatment 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 treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
