Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Wales Center, NY. are typically delivered in a residential or inpatient 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 individual abstinent through detox in conjunction with a short course of therapy and counseling to lightly address emotional addiction issues. Since it can take several weeks if not months to truly address everything which may hang the person up and 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 Wales Center who have a long termaddiction to drugs and alcohol.
