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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Somerville offer group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
