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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation 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 rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers in Endicott have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among individuals who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
