Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Dawson are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period 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 to get the individual abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Dawson who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
