Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Stockdale have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher 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 transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
