Popis: | All patients admitted to a Residential Treatment Center (RTC), a drug-free hospital-based inpatient facility in February 1985 through July 1985, were followed-up 6 months after discharge. The results are contrasted with those obtained in 1973 in a similar follow-up study. Length of stay at RTC had been reduced from 1 year in 1973 to 3 months in 1985. Six months after discharge, the longer length of stay in 1973 appears to be almost twice as effective as the 3-month program in 1985. |
