Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Mc Coy, VA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Mc Coy offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
