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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Viewtown have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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