[QUOTE="PatriotsGirl, post: 383095"] I am so frustrated I am just going to cry. ANOTHER acute facility. Why would you advertise yourself as a drug rehab if it is only acute care??????? Average stay 3 - 5 days!!!!!!! Sure, they have had some people as long as a month, but what in the world is this going to do??? Nothing. Been there done that. She doesn't think she has a problem. She doesn't think she needs treatment. How can you possibly take a kid that tests positive for meth and only keep them short term??? This will do NOTHING. I am so frustrated. She is not coming back here that soon. I refuse. She is just going to go back out and use again like last time. I don't know what to do. I cannot let her live here with out some kind of long term program. The intake person told me places are just not set up to be long term. That is ****! The only sliver of good news is that they did take her and they are putting her in the adult unit so she is less likely to "work" the system. But how can they possibly expect short term to do anything? HOW?? For anyone??? We cannot do "intensive" outpatient. We both work full time and I have used up every PTO I have on this girl. I spent a hundred bucks at Wal-Mart getting her sweats, socks, slippers, etc for long term rehab only to find they are not what they advertise to be! :( Where do I go from here?? [/QUOTE]
