Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Northport, WA.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Northport have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
