Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Big Bend National Park, TX.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Big Bend National Park have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation 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 completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center 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.
