Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Emerson, GA. are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab typically demands 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 addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might 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 Emerson who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
