Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Knightdale are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential 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 demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person abstinent through detoxification followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which may 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 sufficient for those in Knightdale, North Carolina who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
