Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Mount Jackson, VA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab facilities in Mount Jackson have intensive 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 clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
