Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Hawkinsville, GA. are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation typically demands 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 addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Because 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 sufficient for those in Hawkinsville who have a seriousaddiction to drugs.
