Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Burke, VA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehab.

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

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