Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Winooski, VT.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehabilitation facility. Because rehab is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for clients who cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with people who only get short term treatment as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program at least have a better chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
