Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Westerly, RI.

Short Term drug rehab 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 rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who cannot endure long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Westerly have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are greater with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
