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

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Heath have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
