The treatment of the addicted patients is a comprehensive process and hence, it involves several medical as well as socioeconomic dimensions. The goal of the addiction treatment is a restoration of health, better self-knowledge, self-evaluation, and self-awareness.
A cured patient should be able to manage the problems and conflicts she or he will encounter after treatment more efficiently. It is clear from clinical practice that despite all the efforts, the treatment is not always successful.
There is still a segment of patients whose problem has not been solved after completion of the treatment. Nevertheless, its success is also the decreased rate of the health and other problems achieved after completion of the treatment compared to the state before the treatment.
