Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and lasts from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in Wellesley Island have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many individuals 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 fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher with individuals who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day treatment program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
