Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Westmoreland City, Pennsylvania are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehab typically demands 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 brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might 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 recommended for those in Westmoreland City, Pennsylvania who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
