Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Breezy Point are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehab requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person abstinent through detox followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to completely address all issues which might result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Breezy Point who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
