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

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Burlington have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with clients who only get short term treatment . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
