Other Languages - HopeWhile trying to find a drug rehab to attend can seem like a difficult task, finding one that provides services for other languages is an added challenge. However, today a lot of rehab facilities employ staff members who are bilingual. When you have found a program that meets your needs, speak to their staff about the likelihood of providing their services other languages during treatment. Even though they may not initially have the capability to provide their services in other languages they might be able to find a way to accommodate your needs. Often the rehab program will do its best to rise to the occasion and see what is available to help their clients.
