Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Crystal City have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among people who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
