the.com/rehab
A place where people work hard, often at great cost, to rebuild their lives after addiction.
means A structured program of treatment meant to help someone recover from addiction, injury, or illness and return to functioning.
from Simply a clipped form of 'rehabilitation,' which traces back to Latin habilis, meaning 'able' or 'fit' — the same root behind 'able' and 'habit.' Add the prefix re- ('again') and you get the core idea: making someone able again. The full word entered English for restoring reputations, rights, or buildings; the shortened 'rehab' took off in the 20th century, first in building-renovation contexts, then narrowing hard toward addiction treatment as the word rode along with growing public attention to recovery programs and celebrity stints alike.
