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

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

Most short-term drug rehabilitation programs in Washburn offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation program is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
