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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Falmouth offer 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 experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
