Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Independence are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab 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 to get the addicted person rehabilitated through detox in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues 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 Independence who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
