Some people take part in a residential short-term alcohol and drug rehab program which requires a stay of 30 days or less. This rehab selection is sometimes appropriate for people in Marlinton who have family or work obligations, and only need a short but intense course of rehabilitation. People in Marlinton with only a brief background of drug and alcohol abuse may also find this to be a suitable option. Somebody in Marlinton who has a significant and serious case of abuse and addiction may require a far more extensive course of treatment. If someone does have an a significant history of abuse and makes the decision to choose a residential short-term treatment option of 30 days or less, it is usually encouraged that they receive standard follow-up treatment or take part in an aftercare program where their advancement can be monitored in their rehab process in every way possible.
