Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Mastic Beach, NY.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used for substance abuse treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Mastic Beach have intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab facility is that many people 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 rehab within the timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
