Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Waiteville, WV.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Waiteville have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab center is that many clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
