Statistics show that people who spend more than 30 days at an inpatient program, almost double their rate of long-term success and they are also not nearly as likely to relapse.
  • Senior citizens with alcoholism are an estimated three times more likely to exhibit a major depressive disorder than those without alcoholism.
