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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Wakefield have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short 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 drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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