Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Assawoman, VA. are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period 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 addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to fully 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 sufficient for those in Assawoman who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
