Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Lake Hiawatha, NJ.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Lake Hiawatha have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase 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 progress in their new sober lifestyle.
