Many men and women in need of drug and alcohol rehabilitation in Cottondale may opt for an inpatient short-term drug rehabilitation center which only only calls for a stay of 30 days or less. This may be a suitable treatment possibility for clients who have family or office commitments, and only require a short but intensive time in rehab. Moreover, individuals that have a very brief background of drug abuse might find this to be a valid choice while someone with a more extensive and serious history of drug and alcohol abuse might be in need of a much more extensive course of treatment. If someone does have a more serious background of drug and alcohol abuse and decides on a residential short-term rehab program of as little as 4 weeks, it is often required that they follow up this treatment with standard follow-up care or take part in an aftercare program in which their sobriety can be monitored and so they can be supported in their rehabilitation process in every way possible.
