Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Alma, WV.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Alma offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
