Short Term substance abuse rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Hempstead offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.
Relapse rates are understandably greater among individuals who only receive short term rehab . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
