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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Ferndale have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program is that many individuals may still be experiencing 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 more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater among people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
