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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who can't endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in York have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher among people who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
