Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Mount Hope are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which may hang the person up and 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 Mount Hope, West Virginia who have a truedependence and addiction to drugs.
