Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - West Point, TX.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in West Point have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
