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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Matinicus have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many 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 fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
