Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Yarmouth, ME. are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation 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 abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because 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 adequate for those in Yarmouth who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
