Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Gum Spring, VA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Gum Spring offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center 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 treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
