Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and lasts from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Portland have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that individuals may still be in 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 rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
