Some individuals looking into drug and alcohol rehabilitation in Baxter, Iowa may opt for a residential short-term drug rehab center that requires a stay of 30 days or less. This may perhaps be a suitable rehabilitation possibility for individuals that have family or office responsibilities, and only need a brief but intensive course of rehab. Furthermore, individuals with a very brief background of drug abuse may find this to be a suitable choice whereas someone with a more significant and severe case of abuse and addiction may very definitely need a more in depth time in rehabilitation. If a potential client does have an extensive background of alcohol and drug abuse and decides on a residential short-term rehab option of as little as a month, it is very often suggested that the person receive standard follow-up care or move to an aftercare program so that their sobriety can be supervised closely and so can receive the support needed in their rehab process in every way possible.
