Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - New Bedford, PA.

Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation center. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in New Bedford 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 people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
