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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation facilities in Northfield have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with individuals who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
