Short-term drug rehab and alcohol treatment services in Wisner are ordinarily delivered in a residential or inpatient facility for a duration 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 by getting the addicted person abstinent through detoxification followed by a brief course of therapy and counseling to lightly deal with addiction issues. Because it can take several weeks if not months to fully address everything which might 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 sufficient for those in Wisner, Louisiana who have a trueaddiction and/or dependence to drugs.
