Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Oak Hall, VA.

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

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Oak Hall offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
