Rehabilitation consists of several stages of treatment. In this, first of all the patient’s condition is assessed. The patient is treated according to his addiction and medical history. After knowing about the addiction and duration, the patient’s body is detoxified. After this, medicine and counseling are also given.
Is rehab just for drug addicts?
It is commonly believed that rehabilitation is about getting rid of addiction, but it is not. There are many types of rehab. There are de-addiction centers where people suffering from drug addiction are treated. Another common rehabilitation center is the rehabilitation center in most of the major government hospitals. Stroke, heart disease patients and people recovering from any surgery are also admitted in it. Rehab is also helpful in cases like depression, anxiety, burnout. Rehabilitation centers provide treatment for recovery after injury or operation. At these centers, patients are helped to improve their walking and balance. Any brain injury after brain stroke is also treated in the rehabilitation center. In these centres, patients are cured through therapy and medicines.
How long will you have to stay in rehab?
In rehab, the complete treatment of the patient is done under the supervision of experts. Typically the time spent in rehabilitation at one time ranges from 28 days to one and a half months. In some cases it may be more or less than this. It depends on the condition of the patient.
