Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Williamson offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that individuals may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
