Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Stoneham, MA.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used to mean substance abuse rehab that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehab facility. Because rehabilitation is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab centers in Stoneham offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center is that many people may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
