Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Clayton, California are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting 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 rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues 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 Clayton, CA. who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
