The world's best Drug Rehabilitation centre

Motivated, loving human relationships and teamwork and having some knowledge in the field of nursing (I made a 1st Year Training Institute in Nursing in 2007/2008), I am very interested in this mission that would allow me to go to meet the Togolese people to discover the local customs and practices and participate in a Inpatient drug rehab. evaluate the effectiveness of acamprosate in maintaining abstinence among alcohol-dependent patients weaned. Project: a controlled experiment and randomized, double-blind, in several places. The patients were randomly and individually is an active product or placebo. Abstinence was assessed during a treatment period of 6 months and after a period of 6 months follow-up. Setting: A rehabilitation program for alcohol problems based on the patient community. Participants: 246 alcohol-dependent patients aged 18 to 65 years recruited immediately after a course withdrawal intense hospital. Measures: the first step of Residential drug rehab on the outcome of treatment was abstinence reported by the subjects themselves from earlier sessions at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after starting treatment with a treatment period of 6 months. Results: A significantly higher proportion of patients receiving acamprosate group were abstinent after 3 months and 6 months of treatment. The percentage of patients reporting continuous abstinence at the end of the treatment period was almost double that of the placebo group (40.7% against 20.8%, respectively). Utah Drug Rehab had significantly increased retention of patients in the treatment program. Six months after the end of treatment, the criterion of abstinence since the last visit was reached by more patients in the acamprosate group (43.4%) than the placebo group (29.8%), but this difference was not statistically significant at checkpoint three months after stopping study drug. Conclusions: Acamprosate may be a useful pharmacological compound for long-term treatment of alcohol dependence when applied in a rehabilitation program based on the community.
