Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Steep Falls, ME.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Steep Falls offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that clients may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
