Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Kearny, NJ. are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a period of 30 days or less. While 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 by getting the addicted person abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Kearny, NJ. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
