Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Islesboro, ME.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Islesboro have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term rehab . Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
