Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Appomattox, VA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Appomattox offer intensive 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 clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab center is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
