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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
