Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Brooklyn Park, MD.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Brooklyn Park have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
