Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Orkney Springs, VA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Orkney Springs offer intensive 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 people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as 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 greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
