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

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

Most short-term drug rehab centers in Walkersville have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
