Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - East Elmhurst, NY.

Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in East Elmhurst have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically 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 facility is that individuals may still be in the beginning stages 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 specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
