Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab solutions with regards to intensity of care, since the individual can maintain their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to be in a treatment facility while undergoing treatment services. Although this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many people in treatment have to have to have a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse disorders are what are recognized in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders during rehab in order to find resolution simply because one typically triggers the other. Fortunately, there are lots of drug rehab programs who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face to enable them to not just become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can be difficult among the hearing impaired, there are ASL along with other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Apart from ASL, such services may include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the help they need in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers possess the staff or wherewithal to focus on the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but fortunately there are more and more centers that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study info and stuff like that are actually very often available in Spanish in both long and short terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish treatment is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but individuals actually have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever center they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation facilities will often provide payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment facilities will take Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present any other form of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehab within a limited amount of programs, and in this instance individuals may choose to explore the self pay option and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment program that will produce better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation center.
