Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Wayland, Massachusetts are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a period 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 to get the addicted person abstinent through detox in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to truly address everything which could hang the person up and result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Wayland, Massachusetts who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
