Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Eastham, MA.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Eastham have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

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