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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Sheffield have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially 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 rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
