Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Mammoth Cave, KY. are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation 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 rehabilitated through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which may result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Mammoth Cave, Kentucky who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
