Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Quakertown are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While 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 by getting the addicted person abstinent through detox in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might 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 Quakertown who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
