Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Casco, ME.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
