Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Greenwood are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a time period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment 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 detoxification followed by a brief course of counseling and therapy to lightly address addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully 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 recommended for those in Greenwood, NY. who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
