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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Ridgefield have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
