Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Howes Cave, NY.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Howes Cave have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
