What is the center's success rate?

What is the center’s success rate? Answering this question is not easy, mainly because there is no official body or sufficiently credible independent authority that would allow us to determine which addiction treatment centers have a particular success rate. Therefore, most centers that publish success rates rely on their own statistics, and here we would need to define what constitutes success.

Is it considered a success when a patient is discharged… even if they have a relapse years later and seek help again?

Is it considered a success if a patient completes the center's program?… even if they continue using drugs or relapse after leaving?

Is it considered a success to hear nothing from the patient?… in cases where the patient discontinues treatment because they don’t feel well, feel they aren’t making progress, or feel they aren’t receiving enough empathy from the treating professionals.

Is it considered a success to have many patients in the program who have paid for a year of treatment in advance and are compelled to attend therapy and group sessions so as not to waste their financial investment?

Is a decrease in a patient’s substance use (risk reduction)—which allows the patient and their family to lead a dignified and fulfilling life—considered a success, even if the patient has not stopped using substances?

In short, one of the major problems with the addictive disorders The fact is that people who suffer from addiction have experienced sensations and changes in their brain’s synaptic connections that are long-lasting, and that if they had not used the toxic substance, they would not have the “brain-based” memory of that sensation. People suffering from an addiction will struggle with their internal urges to use—to a greater or lesser extent—for many years, and as with everything, there is no guarantee that when faced with a significant life situation or a major problem, their brain won’t seek shortcuts to feel better.

About Us We believe that realistic goals should be set with patients at the beginning of the process and evaluated periodically, as well as at the end of treatment, to determine whether they have been met or need to be adjusted. The latest findings in addiction treatment indicate that success is not merely about abstaining from substance use, but rather, in a holistic sense, about resolving the underlying issues that led to the addiction in the first place.

We hope we have answered your question about the center's success rate.
