Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Girdletree, MD.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Girdletree have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment 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 stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
