Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Washington 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 much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the individual abstinent through detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take 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 Washington, NH. who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
