Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Fort Kent, ME.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Fort Kent offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
