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

Short Term drug and alcohol rehab is a term used to mean addiction rehab that does not last long and usually lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation center. Because rehab is not long, it is an ideal option cost-wise and for individuals who can't commit to long-term rehab.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation facilities in East Durham offer psychotherapy and individual/group counseling 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 be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term alcohol and drug rehab facility is that many clients 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 rehab within the timeframe much more challenging, as individuals may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater with people who only receive short term rehabilitation as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehab facility have a better chance of maintaining their sobriety, because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
