Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Wales, UT.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Wales offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
