Long Term Drug Rehab Inpatient Programs
A long term drug
rehab program is usually over 90 days. While there is no "magic number" as
to how long is best, something that lets the individual move at his or her own
pace is better. Most inpatient drug rehabs are only 28 or 30 days and that just
isn't enough time to produce significant long term recovery.
A long term program that addresses the biophysical aspect of addiction is important at increasing the overall changes for recovery. Facilities like this don't have a set time period when treatment is complete, but the usual length of stay is typically around 90-120 days or so.
Some people equate the top dollar or the longest term to being the most successful, but that's not necessarily true. Yes, most rehabs do cost money, and the average price is about $7,000 per month. There are facilities that are free (paid for by our taxes) and there are centers that charge more than 100K that are equally as ineffective. There are also 18-month programs that are just as ineffective as a 3-day detox.
There really are several factors at determining what will produce the best outcome, and that's where we can help. A general rule of thumb is a long term (90 days or more) program with a drug-free approach that addresses the whole issue and incorporates an educational component.

The fact is that the success of long term inpatient drug rehab treatment has been proven. A group of researchers from the University of Chicago, Brown University, and Rhode Island Hospital teamed up with the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA) and found that former drug users had a better chance at sobriety by completing a long term drug rehab program.
