Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Tennessee Ridge, TN. are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period 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 abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which could 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 Tennessee Ridge who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
