Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Houstonia, MO. are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the individual rehabilitated through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address everything which may 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 sufficient for those in Houstonia, MO. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
