Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Meldrim offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the beginning 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 harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only receive 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 rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
