Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug rehab centers in Penn Laird offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive 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.
