Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Dunbar, KY. are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While 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 to get the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address everything which may result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Dunbar who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
