Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Lancaster are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a 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 individual rehabilitated through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which may trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Lancaster, Massachusetts who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
