Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - East Machias, ME.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
