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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
