Short Term drug and alcohol rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.
Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in St. Albans offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most people will need to go through total detox 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 beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.
Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehabilitation . People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
