Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Port Royal, VA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Port Royal offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
