Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Roaring Branch are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment 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 therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which might 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 sufficient for those in Roaring Branch who have a truedependence and addiction to drugs.
