Some individuals take part in a residential short-term alcohol and drug treatment facility which calls for a stay of 30 days or less. This treatment option may be appropriate for individuals in Bard who have personal or other commitments, and only require a short but intense stint in rehab. People in Bard with only a short history of drug abuse may also find this to be an appropriate choice. Somebody in Bard who has a significant and severe case of abuse and addiction may need a much more substantial program of rehabilitation. If someone does have an a more extensive background of abuse and makes the decision to select a residential short-term treatment option of 30 days or less, it is often suggested that they receive standard follow-up care or take part in an aftercare program so that their progress can be monitored in their rehabilitation process whenever possible.
