Edgemont - Residential Short-Term Rehabilitation (30 Days or Less)

A residential short-term treatment (30 days or less) program offers care 24 hours a day 7 days a week for an average of 30 days (or less) depending on the treatment center. The individuals live at the rehab facility and are ensured a totally alcohol and drug-free environment during their recovery process. While in treatment they handle their complications with drug and/or alcohol addiction while learning how to go about their life without turning to drugs to solve their issues. When the individual has completed their residential short-term treatment, they frequently continue their recovery process by going into outpatient treatment, attending meetings, therapy or counseling. Intensely addicted people who have a long history of substance abuse will benefit from living at a sober living home after they complete treatment. This will help them solidify their new found sobriety and give them strength and support.
