Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Altha, Florida are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation 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 followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address everything which may 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 recommended for those in Altha, FL. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
