Washington Long Term Alcohol And Drug Rehab Centers
The state of Washington ranks as one of the highest when it comes to the rates of drug and alcohol abuse. Fortunately, there are several long-term treatment programs available to help people put addiction behind them once and for all and lead a life of sobriety.
Washington State ranks among the nation’s highest in drug use. In 2012, the National Drug Institute reported an increase in heroin usage near Seattle, with a geographical spread to outlying regions of the state.
Perhaps more concerning is the increase in drug abuse among young adults. Over half of the admissions for long term rehab to treat marijuana addictions in 2012 were young adults under the age of 18. Surprisingly, 75% of those seeking treatment for marijuana were male.
How can you help a loved one who is struggling with an addiction? Regardless of their drug of choice, for some, outpatient rehab, while often covered more easily by insurance companies, isn’t the answer. It’s time to look into long term rehab options.
For those fighting to stay clean after a short term program, the ongoing personal attention and care provided by long term rehab may be the answer. Patients are provided with 24-hour support, including full access to a variety of addiction experts, counselors, and mentors.
