Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Lake Stevens, Washington are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab 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 addicted person abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully 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 recommended for those in Lake Stevens who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
