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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in West Hyannisport have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab 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 fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

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