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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment 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 drug and alcohol rehab centers in Weehawken have 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 go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that clients 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 treatment within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
