Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - North Vassalboro, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in North Vassalboro have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially 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 rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages 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 harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
