Methadone Rehabilitation: Must be
Qualitative and Long-Lasting
The treatment process involves the explanation of the problems of addiction
to methadone, the detoxification process, and the opportunity for a changed
life. This will push the addicts to find the triggers of their addiction, making it
easier for the treatment personnel to coin an effective treatment plan for
them. In some centers, dual diagnosis may be required since methadone is
often linked to other substances such as heroin.
The components of a professional rehabilitation center after the process of
detoxification are:
Residential care areas
Group and counseling sessions
Lifetime aftercare services to prevent the occurrence of relapse
Other parts of the addict's life that the facility may contribute to might include
the overall relationship of the addict with his immediate family, friends, and
colleagues.
