Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Bristol, CT. are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug rehabilitation typically demands 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 individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to completely address everything which may hang the person up and cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be sufficient for those in Bristol who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
