Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Clark have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
