Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Englewood Cliffs, NJ.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Englewood Cliffs offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with individuals who only go through short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
