Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Markham offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
