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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Slidell offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the beginning 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 individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
