Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Barton, MD.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehab.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab programs in Barton have intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically relapse prevention. Because of the short time clients are in treatment, most people will need to experience full detoxification before beginning services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many clients may still be experiencing the beginning stages of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make rehab within the timeframe much harder as people may be physically uncomfortable and moody while experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher among clients who only receive short term treatment as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
