GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Any person who is severely addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by attending a hospital inpatient program. These types of programs are geared 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 beneficial 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 portion of their treatment plan is complete they may choose to enter a sober living setting or transfer into an outpatient program.
