Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Houlton, ME. are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation 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 brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which could 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 Houlton who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
