Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Dewar, IA. are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which might hang the person up and trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Dewar who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
