Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Atlantic Highlands, NJ. are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which may 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 Atlantic Highlands who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
