Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Rockland, ME.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Rockland offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
