The Environment for Rehab
I know that Canada places quite a high value on both alcohol and drug rehabilitation, particularly because the rehab programs save not only money and property but, more importantly, lives, those of addicts and families and innocent bystanders. I hear that Vancouver is still wavering when it comes to providing full support to the Hastings Street needle-exchange program, but at least that fact gets on the national news 3 or 4 times a year.
Now south of Vancouver, British Columbia, just outside Los Angeles, California, the community of Malibu hosts quite advanced Drug Treatment Centers. Drug Rehab Sunset Malibu (the toll-free number is 1-800-332-9202) is in the top ten when drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers are ranked for prestige. Sunset Malibu provides a luxurious environment for recovery. In fact Rehab Sunset Malibu takes pride in pointing out that it is not, so to speak, a drug treatment center: it is a luxurious sober living facility.
