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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Worthington offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab facility is that people 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an 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.
