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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in Millersville have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab program is that many clients 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 completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
