Many people looking into alcohol and drug rehab in Rock Island, Illinois may choose to take part in an inpatient short-term drug treatment facility which requires a stay of as little as a month. This may be a suitable treatment option for individuals that have personal or other extensive commitments, and only require a brief but somewhat intensive course of rehab. In addition, individuals with only a short background of alcohol and drug abuse may find that this may be an appropriate option while someone who has a more significant and severe case of substance abuse might need a more intensive course of treatment. If an individual evidently has a more serious history of alcohol and drug abuse and decides on a residential short-term treatment program of 30 days or less, it is typically recommended that the client agree to standard follow-up treatment or take part in an aftercare facility where their sobriety can be monitored and so they can be supported in their rehab process in every way feasible.
