Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Ashville, NY.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason can't commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Ashville have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol 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 rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program 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.
