Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Bethany, CT.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Bethany offer intensive 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 people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive 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 rehab program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
