Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Horizon City have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are greater with people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
