Ruskin - Other LanguagesAlthough finding a drug rehab facility can seem like a difficult task, discovering one that provides services for other languages is an added challenge. However, today many rehab facilities employ staff members who are bilingual. When you have identified a program that meets your needs, speak to their staff about the likelihood of providing their services other languages during you or your loved one's time in treatment. Although they may not initially have the capability to offer their services in other languages they may 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.
