Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Harrington, WA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Harrington have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
