Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - East Sandwich, MA.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in East Sandwich offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

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