Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Elkhart Lake have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
