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

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

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Midland have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher 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 phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
