Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Alexandria, MN. are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the individual abstinent through detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which might hang the person up and 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 Alexandria, MN. who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
