Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in North, Virginia are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding 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 counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which might hang the person up and result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in North, Virginia who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
