Drug Addiction Facts

  • Studies indicate that the brains of Ecstasy users who experience serotonin depletion take a significant amount of time to restore the level of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • Patients who require detox services due to concerns about withdrawal also benefit from inpatient programs, as detox services can be included as a part of inpatient treatment programs. After detox (if needed), patients undergo an intensive, daily drug/alcohol treatment regimen to learn about the addiction in a supportive, immersive environment.
  • Crystal meth is a more potent version of meth, and typically resembles small fragments of shiny white pebbles or rocks which can be smoked using glass pipes that are very similar to the pipes that are used to smoke crack cocaine.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of having to be in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehab services. Even if this might seem perfect it might not provide the much needed change of environment than a lot of people in rehab need to have a productive rehabilitation.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who battle with substance abuse might have unique challenges they must overcome when in treatment, which rehab specialists in the center they elect to be a part of must be keen of in order that a full recovery is achievable. So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to choose a program that is accustomed to helping seniors and older adults handle the unique life and substance abuse issues that these clients face which may include a wider spectrum of solutions including medical care and so on.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse because of the challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of this issue can be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL as well as other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse treatment is needed. Apart from ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired folks are obtaining the help they need in drug and alcohol rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug treatment centers have the staff or resources to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more centers that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Counselling, study information and stuff like that are now very often available in Spanish in both long and short terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too around the country.

Medicaid

Certain rehab facilities will take Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present any other type of private medical insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may want to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehabilitation program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehab center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehab at drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which deliver either inpatient or outpatient treatment when the program is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the authorization of their Medicare appointed doctor, who must help out with establishing the individual's rehab plan. Inpatient solutions are covered through Medicare Part A, with out of pocket costs being similar to any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.
