Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Harlan are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which may trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Harlan, IA. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
