Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Augusta, WV.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Augusta offer intensive 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 people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
