Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Delta, Louisiana are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment requires 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 addicted person abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues which could hang the person up and 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 Delta, Louisiana who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
