Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Temple are usually delivered in a residential or inpatient setting for a time 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 individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a short course of counseling and therapy to lightly deal with addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to truly address all issues which might bring about relapse once they go back into the real world, short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services may not be recommended for those in Temple, Pennsylvania who have a long termaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
