Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Hammonton offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the beginning 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 harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
