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

Short Term substance abuse rehab is a term used for addiction rehab that is brief, and   lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either an inpatient or residential rehab center. Because treatment is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who for some reason cannot endure long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term substance abuse rehabilitation programs in Ticonderoga have psychotherapy and individual/group counseling which in the context of addiction treatment is essentially relapse prevention. Because of the brief time clients are in treatment, most individuals will need to be fully detoxed before beginning treatment services. One of the disadvantages of rehabilitation at a short-term drug rehabilitation program is that many individuals 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 completely. This can make rehabilitation within the timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be moody and physically uncomfortable while experiencing intense physical and emotional cravings.

Recidivism rates are higher with clients who only get short term rehab as opposed to long term. Clients who participate in short term alcohol and drug rehabilitation and then transition into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation program at least have more of a chance of staying sober because they will maintain a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
