What to expect from drug or alcohol rehab?

The first thing that a person should check inside the drug rehab center is that, whether there are any locks inside the premises or not. In our opinion, there should be no locks; as the success ratio of the program solely depends on the willingness of the patient. If there are locks, then the patient subconsciously will try to resist the treatments. Additionally, other factors to be checked for efficient drug rehab program are: medical facilities, licensing agreement, existing staff, methodologies of the process, counseling and group therapy sessions, after care service and past references and success statistics.
