Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in New London are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though 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 individual rehabilitated through detoxification in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues which might 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 New London who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
