Treatment encompasses programs like detox, residential treatment, and outpatient treatment to create a well-rounded rehabilitation process that results in long term sobriety.
There are many different treatment options available to individuals. This category will cover all of them, and discuss what makes them different and similar. Depending upon a person’s addiction and personal situation will depend on what treatment option will work best.
