Some individuals choose to receive treatment in a residential short-term drug and alcohol rehab center which requires a stay of 30 days or less. This treatment option is sometimes appropriate for individuals in Jackson who have family or work obligations, and only need a brief but intensive course of rehab. Persons in Jackson with only a short history of alcohol and drug abuse may also find this to be a suitable option. Somebody in Jackson who has a significant and serious case of misuse and drug addiction may need a far more extensive program of rehab. If somebody does have an a more extensive history of misuse and makes the decision to opt for a residential short-term treatment option of 30 days or less, it is often recommended that they obtain regular follow-up treatment or take advantage of an aftercare program where their development can be looked after in their treatment process in every way possible.
