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

Short Term alcohol and drug rehab is a phrase used to mean addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts   from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient treatment program. Because rehabilitation is so short, it is a great financial option and for people who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Ellenburg have intensive 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 clients will need to experience full detoxification before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of treatment at a short-term substance abuse rehab center is that clients may still be in the beginning stages of withdrawal and may be more unfocused than someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher among clients who only go through short term treatment as opposed to long term. People who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then phase into an intensive outpatient program or day rehab center at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
