Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Livingston, WI.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Livingston have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
