Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Placerville are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient 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 rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues 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 Placerville who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
