Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Cambridge, IA. are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though 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 by getting the addicted person abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could hang the person up and result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Cambridge, IA. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
