Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Ridgeley, West Virginia are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a time 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 by getting the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which could bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Ridgeley who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
