Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Carmel are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab typically demands 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 addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to truly address everything which might bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Carmel who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
