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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehab is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation centers in Roxbury offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab center is that people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much harder as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with clients who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility have better odds of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
