Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Scottsville are usually 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 much more rigorous course of treatment, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services work by getting the addicted person rehabilitated through detox followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Because it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which may hang the person up and result in relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be adequate for those in Scottsville, Kentucky who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
