Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Fenwick Island are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While 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 in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to completely address everything 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 recommended for those in Fenwick Island, Delaware who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
