Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Ansted, WV.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Ansted offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
