Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Charlton Depot, MA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Charlton Depot offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
