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

Short Term drug rehabilitation is a term used to mean addiction treatment that does not last long and usually lasts anywhere from fourteen to thirty days in either a residential or in-patient rehabilitation program. Because rehabilitation is so brief, it is an ideal option cost-wise in most cases and for people who can't commit to long-term rehabilitation.

Most short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs in Winthrop offer intensive group and individual counseling and psychotherapy which in the context of addiction treatment is basically 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 rehab at a short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility is that many people may still be in the beginning phases of withdrawal and may not be able to focus as well as someone who has stabilized and detoxed completely. This can make rehabilitation within the specific timeframe much more challenging, as clients may be physically uncomfortable and moody and experiencing intense cravings.

Recidivism rates are understandably greater among clients who only receive short term treatment . People who participate in short term drug rehabilitation and then phase into an outpatient program or day rehabilitation center have better odds of staying sober because they will keep up a support system while they progress in their new sober lifestyle.
