Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - East Taunton, MA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in East Taunton have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. 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 stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
