Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Amherst, WI.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Amherst offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
