Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Chester, PA. are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a duration of 30 days or less. Though 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 to get the individual abstinent through detox followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to completely address all issues 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 sufficient for those in Chester who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
