Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Marlborough, CT.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation facility. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with clients who only get short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
