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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. 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 treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Elkwood have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
