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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Kingston offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
