Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - West Halifax, VT.

Short Term drug rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in West Halifax have group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the initial phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day treatment facility have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
