Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Barnstable Town, Massachusetts are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues.
