Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Salix are usually delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a time period of 30 days or less. While long term drug treatment requires at least a 90 day stay and a much more demanding course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work to get the addicted person abstinent through detoxification in conjunction with a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which could hang the person up and 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 Salix, Iowa who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
