Short Term Addiction Treatment - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Smithtown, NY.

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a phrase used for addiction rehab that does not last long and   lasts anywhere from 14 to 30 days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because treatment is so short, it is a great financial option in most cases and for individuals who for some reason cannot commit to long-term treatment.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Smithtown offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most clients will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug and alcohol rehab center is that individuals may still be experiencing the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has detoxed and stabilized completely. This can make treatment within the timeframe much harder as people may be moody and physically uncomfortable and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably higher with individuals who only go through short term treatment . Individuals who participate in short term drug rehab and then transition into an 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.
