Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab 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 rehabilitation programs in Mavisdale have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
