Drug rehab?


I have a question:

does rehabilitation nursing also apply to drug rehab? because i would like to be a nurse in a drug rehab center but i didn't really know what it would be called.

if anyone is in this field could they let me know how it is?? thanks

The Rehabilitation talked about here (and anywhere else I've seen) is only physical rehabilitation (although there's more than the physical involved a lot of the time). Try "substance abuse nursing", just a guess.

For discussions about nursing related to substance abuse and other mental health issues, check out the Psychiatric Nursing Forum.
