Short Term Addiction Treatment - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Dexter, NY.

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used for substance abuse treatment that does not last long and   lasts   from fourteen to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehab program. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for clients who can't commit to long-term rehab.

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

Relapse rates are understandably higher with people who only go through short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehab and then transition into an intensive outpatient program or day treatment center have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
