Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Beacon are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. While 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 addicted person rehabilitated through detox followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might 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 Beacon who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
