Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Westwego are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab typically demands 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 rehabilitated through detox in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which might hang the person up and trigger relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Westwego, Louisiana who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
