Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Rocky Point are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab typically demands at least a 90 day stay and a lot more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Rocky Point who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
