Residential long-term treatment is statistically the most optimal treatment program and approach in terms of success rates when measuring long-term sobriety once treatment is complete. Residential long-term treatment in Vernalis provides the person in treatment a positive and effective oasis. In residential long-term treatment the individual can participate in rehabilitation services in a more proactive and distraction free setting in which there is very little that could possibly get in the way of their successes or progress while in alcohol and drug treatment. The long-term aspect is in fact what will ensure the treatment client is reassured and confident enough to be able to continue to be off of drugs when they leave drug and alcohol rehab, mainly because 4 weeks is more often than not simply insufficient time in alcohol and drug treatment for the more seriously addicted people. It can take a number of weeks to achieve the self confidence that one is going to be able to stay off of drugs and/or alcohol, with a lengthy and intense stint in rehab in a residential drug rehab.
