Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Gary have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably higher with individuals who only receive short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
