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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Rocky Ridge 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 experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
