Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Port Heiden, AK.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Port Heiden offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with individuals who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
