Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Blackey, KY. 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 demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person abstinent through detoxification followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to completely address everything which may 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 recommended for those in Blackey, Kentucky who have a long termaddiction to drugs and alcohol.
