Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in San Ardo, California are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a duration of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which might cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in San Ardo, California who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
