Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Royal Oak, Michigan are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation 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 abstinent through detoxification followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to completely address all issues which could trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Royal Oak, MI. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
