Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Helena are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues which could cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Helena who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
