Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Diomede, AK.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase 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 can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
