How Long Does It Take to Become a Substance Abuse Nurse?

Question by Emilia P: How long does it take to become a substance abuse nurse?
I was wondering how long it takes to be a substance abuse nurse. Or if you can tell me the requirements a substance abuse nurse needs.

Just to clarify I want to become a nurse not a counselor.

Thank you for your help.
