Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Mack have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are greater with individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
