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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in South Berwick 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
