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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Racine offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially 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 rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment 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.
