Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Marlborough, MA.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere 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 individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Marlborough have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
