Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Altair, TX.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Altair have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
