Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Indian Island, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Indian Island have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that many individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. 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 greater with clients who only receive short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
