Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Wurtsboro, NY.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehab programs in Wurtsboro offer 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 individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab program is that individuals may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
