Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Alden, NY.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for clients who can't endure long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
