Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Taos Ski Valley, NM.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a term used for addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from 14 to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient treatment center. Because treatment is not long, it is a great financial option in most cases and for people who for some reason can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation centers in Taos Ski Valley offer 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 people will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehab at a short-term substance abuse rehab program is that many people may still be in the initial phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed fully. This can make treatment within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are greater among individuals who only receive short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term drug and alcohol rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment program have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they transition to a sober lifestyle.
