Wallingford, Pennsylvania - Other LanguagesAlthough searching for a drug rehab program can seem to be an overwhelming task, finding one that provides services for other languages is an added challenge. However, today many rehab facilities employ staff members who are bilingual. When you have located a program that meets your needs, speak to their staff about the possibility of delivering their services other languages during you or your loved one's time in treatment. While they may not initially have the capability to provide their services in other languages they may be able to find a way to accommodate your needs. Frequently the facility will do its best to rise to the occasion and see what is available to help their clients.
