Some men and women looking into alcohol and drug rehab in Wellington may opt for an inpatient short-term drug and alcohol rehabilitation program which requires a stay of as little as a month. This might be an appropriate treatment possibility for clients that have personal or work obligations, and simply require a quick but somewhat intensive time in treatment. Moreover, individuals with only a short history of drug and alcohol abuse may possibly find this to be a suitable choice while an individual who has a more significant and critical case of abuse and addiction might be in need of an a much more significant and extensive time in rehabilitation. If a potential client does have a more serious history of alcohol and drug abuse and opts for a residential short-term treatment program of as little as a month, it is very often recommended that the person receive typical follow-up care or take part in an aftercare program where their progress can be monitored and so they can be supported in their rehabilitation process as much as possible.
