Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who can't commit to long-term rehab.
Most short-term drug rehabilitation centers in Jamaica have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation center is that people may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only get short term rehabilitation . Clients who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
