Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Alcova, WY.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Alcova offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 substance abuse rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with clients who only get short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
