Question by dominique w: What should a drug rehab program possess?
I’m looking for the tell-tale signs of a good rehab program since my father have decided to have an older brother undergo one. His life got all messed up when he found out that his gf for five years cheated her thrice. I wanna help my brother find a rehab that will take good care of him.

Please help.

Rehab centers, as noted at the outset, seem to come in a limitless number of different forms. Choosing a drug treatment center that’s right for you is the key to ensuring the success of your drug rehabilitation experience. The most important thing to remember as you go forward in your search: No drug rehab program can work if it doesn’t cater to your individual needs.

Some drug abuse treatment centers purport to have discovered a blanket cure for drug addiction. Such drug rehab programs assume, implicitly, that all drug addicts are the same: that what works for one drug addict will work for every drug addict. Unfortunately, such thinking is just flat wrong.

Drug dependency is, by its very definition, a personalized disease. The truth is that no two drug addicts are exactly alike, and no two drug rehab programs should treat them as such. Successful drug treatment is that which addresses the needs of every individual patient. The drug abuse treatment center that’s right for you is the one which has a firm grasp of that fact, and which applies it in constructing a personalized drug rehabilitation program that addresses you as you are: as a unique individual with unique individual needs.
