Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Dante offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive 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 rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
