Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Metuchen, NJ.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab facilities in Metuchen offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term rehab . People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
