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

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

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

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
