Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Aberdeen, SD. are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which may hang the person up and bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Aberdeen who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
