Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Prestonsburg, KY. are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a 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 by getting the individual abstinent through detox followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully 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 sufficient for those in Prestonsburg, Kentucky who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
