Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Post Mills are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab 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 addicted person abstinent through detoxification followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which may cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Post Mills who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
