Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Occoquan are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment 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 abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully 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 Occoquan, VA. who have a truedependence and addiction to drugs and alcohol.
