Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Greensboro, MD.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Greensboro have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
