Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Brooklyn, CT.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Brooklyn have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that people may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
