Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug rehab programs in Essex have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
