Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Smithville, TN.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
