Answer by sunshine girl
I would be surprised if that particular place is covered. In my experience those kinds of treatment centers that claim to “cure” addiction are nothing more than a relaxing vacation for the addicts. If you or someone you know is looking for a real rehab center focus on one with strong support networks for the patient and a good program based on the 12 steps. Addiction is not something you cure in a couple months, it’s a life long disease that can resurface at any point.
