Some people looking into alcohol and drug rehabilitation in Gardner, ND. may may decide on a residential short-term drug and alcohol rehab facility which only calls for a stay of as little as 4 weeks. This may perhaps be a suitable rehab option for people who have family or work responsibilities, and simply need a short but intensive course of rehab. In addition to these circumstances, people with a very brief history of drug abuse might find that this may be an appropriate option whereas an individual who has a more extensive and severe history of drug and alcohol abuse might require a much more in depth time spent in rehabilitation. If someone does have an extensive background of drug and alcohol abuse and chooses a residential short-term rehabilitation program of 30 days or less, it is very often recommended that the client receive standard follow-up treatment or take part in an aftercare program so that their progress can be supervised closely and so they can be supported in their rehab process as much as feasible.
