Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Anderson, SC. are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment 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 detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully 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 recommended for those in Anderson who have a long termdependence and addiction to drugs.
