Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Hiram, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Hiram have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
