GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
A person who is seriously addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by receiving treatment from a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every person attempting recovery needs this level of care, it is useful to those who have serious physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to even up to a month. Once the inpatient part of their treatment plan is finished they may choose to enter a sober living program or transfer into an outpatient program.
