Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Richmond, VT.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities in Richmond have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Relapse rates are higher among people who only go through short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
