Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Palmyra, NJ.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 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 people who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Palmyra have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short 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 rehab facility is that individuals 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 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 higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
