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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Cowen have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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