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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Bridgewater have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically 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 treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
