Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Franklin, VT.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in Franklin have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among people who only go through short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
