Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Hartwell, GA. are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a time period 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 to get the addicted person abstinent through detoxification followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might hang the person up and cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Hartwell who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
