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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only get short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
