Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Westover, Alabama are ordinarily delivered in an inpatient or residential facility for a period of 30 days or less. Though 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 by getting the individual abstinent through detoxification followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with emotional addiction issues. Since it usually takes several weeks if not months to fully address everything which could 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 Westover who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs and alcohol.
