Other Languages - Fruitland, MD.While searching for a drug rehab program can seem like a difficult task, discovering one that offers services for other languages is an added challenge. However, today many programs employ staff members who are bilingual. When you have found a program that meets your needs, speak to their staff about the likelihood of delivering their services other languages during you or your loved one's time in treatment. While they may not initially have the capability to provide their services in other languages they may perhaps be able to find a way to accommodate your needs. Often the facility will do its best to rise to the occasion and see what is available to help their clients.
