Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Edmonton are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient setting 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 demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person rehabilitated through detox followed by a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could 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 Edmonton who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
