Many men and women in need of drug rehab in West Nyack may may decide on a residential short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation center that requires a stay of a month or less. This may sometimes be a suitable treatment for people that have family or work responsibilities, and only require a short but intense course of rehabilitation. Moreover, people who have only a brief history of alcohol and drug abuse might find this to be an appropriate option whereas someone in West Nyack with a more extensive and serious history of drug and/or alcohol abuse might demand a far more intensive length of time in rehab. If a person is known to have a more severe history of abuse and decides to choose a West Nyack residential short-term treatment program of as little as 4 weeks, it is often suggested that the client receive regular follow-up care or take part in an aftercare program where their development can be monitored and so they can have support at their disposal in their rehabilitation process as much as possible.
