Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Vernon have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are higher with clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
