Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Bayside, NY.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Bayside offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
