Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Natchez, MS. are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more demanding 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 usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which could trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Natchez who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
