Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Dewar are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely 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 adequate for those in Dewar, Oklahoma who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
