Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Salem are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential setting for a period of 30 days or less. Though long term drug treatment requires at least a 90 day stay and a lot more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person rehabilitated through detoxification followed by a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address all issues which could cause relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Salem who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
