Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Folsom have intensive 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 clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
