Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Needham Heights have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases 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 people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
