Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - East Middlebury, VT.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is a great financial option and for people who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in East Middlebury offer 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 clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation center is that many individuals may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehab within the specific timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
