Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Douglas are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment typically demands 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 rehabilitated through detox followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address everything 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 Douglas, MA. who have a truedependence and addiction to drugs and alcohol.
