Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Farmington are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to completely address everything which might hang the person up and trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Farmington, Maine who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
