Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Port Clyde, ME.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Port Clyde offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment 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 alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
