Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Sandusky, NY.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Sandusky have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that clients may still be in the initial 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 specific timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among individuals who only receive short term rehab . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
