Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - South Burlington, VT.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used to mean substance abuse treatment that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is so brief, it is a great financial option and for clients who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are greater among clients who only go through short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
