Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Hamlet, NC.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Hamlet offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
