Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Edgewood, NM.

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from 14 to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential treatment center. Because treatment is so short, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term drug and alcohol rehab facilities in Edgewood offer intensive psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the short time allowed for treatment services, most clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term drug rehabilitation facility is that people may still be experiencing the initial stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with people who only go through short term rehab as opposed to long term. Individuals who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab facility at least have more of a chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
