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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Mount Savage have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many people may still be in the initial 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 specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
