Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Wilmer, Alabama are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a duration of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation 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 by getting the addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which could hang the person up and bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Wilmer who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
