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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in West Newfield offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab 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.
