Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Louisa are typically delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug rehabilitation 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 in conjunction with a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which might 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 Louisa who have a seriousaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
