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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehab is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehab programs in Windsor have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to go through total detox before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility is that many individuals may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the specific timeframe much harder as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
