California Drug Rehab

Long-Term Drug Rehab in California

Longer term drug rehab programs are greatly more successful than treatment programs with a shorter time frame. This is due to the fact that short-term programs often only offer approximately 30 days of detox, drug replacement therapy and/or group counseling which is usually not enough to thoroughly break the alcohol or drug addiction. CA long-term drug rehab centers go much longer than 30 days. Typically they last 2-12 months, with some California treatment centers being open-ended. Individually tailored to take as long as needed to get the desired result.

California long-term rehab centers that are approximately 90 days in length are recommended for most drug and alcohol addictions. Research has been emerging in recent years showing the correlation between short-term treatment programs and continued drug use. Individuals receiving traditional 30 day treatment have a higher rate of repeated relapse and typically are readmitted into rehab several times.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of people in California do not attend a long-term treatment facility. Instead attempt help through outpatient or short-term care. This is largely due to convenience and the assumption that a long-term drug rehab center in CA would cost substantially more than shorter term programs - which is not necessarily true. There are a number of non-profit CA long-term rehab programs that have amazing success rates which cost approximately the same or not much more than a privately run 30 day treatment center.

Many who eventually seek help through a long-term rehab solution do so only after previously attempting short-term rehab more than once. Only after repeated failures, do they look into a longer term solution and quickly realize that was a vital component which was missing to overcome their drug or alcohol addiction.

Depending on the type and severity of the addiction, the amount of force that is exerted on an addict to continue using is immense. The method of treatment and length of time needs to be in correct balance to successfully break the grasp that the drug has on the addict. Otherwise the rollercoaster of drug dependency will never stop. California's long-term rehab centers offering biophysical detox and non-12 step treatment apply the proper procedures and correct amount of time needed to get the individual through the process of gaining their life back - without the fear of relapse.
