Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Bexley, OH.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Bexley offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug 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.
