Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Irondale are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment 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 individual 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 truly address all issues which could bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Irondale, MO. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
