Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Farmington Falls, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab 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 facilities in Farmington Falls have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term rehab 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 have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
