Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Woden have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center 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 completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher with people 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 rehab center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
