Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - East Dennis, MA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab centers in East Dennis have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
