Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Sewanee, TN.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Sewanee offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

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