Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Ferndale are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the individual rehabilitated through detox followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which might hang the person up and 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 Ferndale who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
