Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Richwood, WV. are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person abstinent through detox 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 everything 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 Richwood, WV. who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
