Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Dexter are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting 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 brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which may 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 Dexter who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
