Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Lake, WV.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Lake offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
