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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Newell have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
