Some individuals looking into drug treatment in Westlake Village, California may may decide on an inpatient short-term alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility that demands a stay of as little as 4 weeks. This may perhaps be a reasonable treatment possibility for clients who have personal or office commitments, and only need a brief but intensive time in treatment. In addition to these circumstances, persons with only a short background of drug and alcohol abuse might find that this may be an appropriate choice while someone with a more extensive and severe history of alcohol and drug abuse may very definitely need a more extensive time in rehabilitation. If an individual evidently has an extensive history of drug and alcohol abuse and decides on a residential short-term rehab program of as little as a month, it is very often suggested that the client follow up this treatment with standard follow-up treatment or move to an aftercare program where their progress can be overseen and so they can be supported in their rehab process in every way feasible.
