Information on Drug Rehab

Ask a Professional

  • What is long-term drug rehab?

    Long-term drug rehab is generally a residential drug rehab program that houses clients for a period of three to six months or longer. These facilities provide numerous amenities for each client because they are living onsite for an extended duration of time.

  • Are long-term drug rehab programs better than short-term programs?

    Yes, long-term programs are better than shorter drug rehab options. This is especially important for anyone who has a long history of drug abuse and chronic relapse. Long-term drug rehab programs offer more therapy methodologies, counseling, and aftercare support. There is a significant benefit to being away from a destructive environment for a longer time.

  • What does long-term drug rehab cost?

    The cost of long-term drug rehab varies as there are private and public long-term treatment centers in Canada. Private long-term drug rehab can cost between $15,000 and $30,000. Public long-term drug rehab is generally covered by provincial healthcare.

  • Should I consider long-term treatment if I have never been to drug rehab?

    Ideally, long-term drug rehab is the better option. However, it depends on the severity of your addiction. For example, a recreational drug user with no previous history of addiction may not need long-term drug rehab. In contrast, someone with a long history of addiction who has never been to rehab would benefit from long-term drug rehab.
