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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Union have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that people 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
