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

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Lebanon have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation center is that clients may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term rehab . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
