Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in South Cairo, NY. are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab 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 individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues.
