Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Cascade, MD.

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a phrase used for addiction rehab that is brief, and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either an inpatient or residential rehab program. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who for some reason cannot endure long-term treatment.

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

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only get short term treatment . Clients who participate in short term substance abuse rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab program at least have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
