Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and lasts from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Middlebury Center have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many people may still be in the initial phases 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 people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are higher among individuals who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
