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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Mountainside have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment center at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
