Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Purgitsville, WV.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Purgitsville 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 individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab facility is that clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation 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.
