Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Colgate, WI.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Colgate have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be in the initial 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 harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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