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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment facility. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug rehab programs in Hardwick offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehab facility is that many individuals may still be in the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are understandably higher with clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
