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

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

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Millwood have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program 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 fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
