Nebraska Heroin Inpatient Facility

Saint Jude's offers a non-treatment solution to heroin addiction

As with any disease, early detection is paramount. The chance for full recovery and a drug and alcohol free future depends on the program that you enroll into. The traditional 12-step AA program has saturated the industry as a prime example of drug rehabs. The inpatient drug rehab facility can be 28 day or more depending on the program. However, just because is popular does not make it effective. Many people go through countless years of AA meetings and are still using. At Saint Jude's you will not sit through typical AA meetings, your experience at our retreats is about you and your personal journey to a new life without heroin.
