Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Cove offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Relapse rates are greater with individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment 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.
