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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Pulaski have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
