Long Term Drug Rehab Dallas TX

The professional opinion of DRS is that long-term treatment substance use treatment has proven to be the most effective for rehabilitation and life-long sobriety—here are some reasons why:

• Addiction did not happen in a day. Long-term drug rehab in Dallas provides the best opportunities and time to overcome any addiction.
• Addressing underlying issues takes time. Long-term programs last 60 to 90 days or longer, and more is done to address trauma.
• The mind and body need time to heal. Lengthier treatment within a residential setting offers more opportunities for healing.

Overall, there is a small selection of long-term substance use treatment programs in Dallas. DRS recommends considering other cities in Texas or other states.

DRS’ Evaluation of Dallas, Texas

After reviewing state statistics and options available for Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation in Dallas, DRS discovered the following pros and cons:

Pros

• There are 18 drug and alcohol detox centers in Dallas that offer excellent withdrawal management programs.
• There are many outpatient drug rehab centers, which is a good option for someone refusing to commit to residential care.
• Over half of the drug and alcohol treatment centers accept private health insurance plans.

Cons

• Only four facilities offer transitional housing, halfway houses, or sober living homes.
• There are only three long-term residential drug rehab centers, making it difficult to access lengthy treatment options.
• Texas leaders have been vocally opposed to the ACA, and the state has thus far refused to expand Medicaid, so a cornerstone of the law’s ability to reduce the uninsured rate is unavailable in Texas.

There are limited options for long-term treatment. However, there is excellent accessibility to outpatient programs and other forms of drug rehab. Affordability of care may become a barrier for some individuals.
