Short Term drug rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Deer Isle offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
