Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Pigeon Forge are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which may hang the person up and bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Pigeon Forge who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
