Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in Troy have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
