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

Short Term drug rehabilitation 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 rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Elka Park offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
