Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Benson, MD.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Benson have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
