Short Term drug rehab is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that is brief, and lasts from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because treatment is so brief, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason can't endure long-term rehabilitation.
Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Hastings offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehab center is that clients 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 treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.
Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term drug rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehabilitation facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
