Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Fordoche, LA. 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 demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person abstinent through detoxification followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which could hang the person up and bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Fordoche, LA. who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
