Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Arlington, VT.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab centers in Arlington offer 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 people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab program is that many people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
