Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Bristol, NH.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Bristol have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
