Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Slab Fork, WV. are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues.
