Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - New Kent, VA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in New Kent have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
