Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Chebeague Island, ME.

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

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Chebeague Island have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
