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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Rockport have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
