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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Mansfield offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that individuals may still be experiencing 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 more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
