Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term substance abuse rehab facilities in Salem 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are greater with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility at least have better odds of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
