Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Hartstown, PA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Hartstown offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
