Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in San Gabriel offer 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 go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning 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 more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are greater with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center 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.
