  • In high doses or when used concurrently with other drugs or alcohol, methadone can produce some of the same effects of heroin and other opiates.
  • Although most of the meth available in the U.S. comes from foreign or domestic super labs, it can also be easily produced in makeshift, illegal laboratories in significant batches for sales and personal use.

Even though this might appear ideal it may not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in rehab have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Residential Short-Term Treatment (30 Days Or Less)

Residential short-term rehab for 30 days or less is an option which permits men and women in rehab to have the much needed change of environment essential to have a shot at remaining sober. Residential treatment is the premiere option because individuals can feel comfortable and at home while receiving services. Residential short-term rehab for 30 days or less may not be long enough for particular individuals with more extreme addiction and dependency concerns, and this should at all times be evaluated at the end of the 30 days to ascertain if more extensive rehab is necessary.

Residential Long-Term Treatment (More Than 30 Days)

Residential long-term rehabilitation, which lasts for more than thirty days, is an option that delivers the commensurate level of care and appropriate environment for anyone experiencing a significant addiction and dependency issue. Because individuals will stay within a residential long-term rehabilitation program for up to 3-6 months and even longer occasionally, these types of programs offer all of the amenities needed to help client's remain as relaxed and amenable as it could possibly be while also delivering quality treatment to help them conquer their addiction for good.

Adolescents

When adolescents get involved in any type of drug use, it is crucial that they acquire top quality care to halt the situation in its tracks so that it doesn't get any worse and maybe jeopardize their future. Because adolescent drug abuse which continues often carries on into adulthood, parents must remain astute and get their adolescent treatment as soon as a problem is observed in a program which addresses adolescent drug use. Many programs which treat adolescents offer both inpatient and residential treatment, which has been proven to be the most beneficial settings for rehabilitation clients of this age.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must tackle both disorders when it's in rehabilitation to find resolution because one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are several drug rehabilitation centers that can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face to enable them to not only become sober but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never wish to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who may need substance abuse rehabilitation will often require solutions beyond what a standard drug and alcohol treatment facility will be able to deliver. Due to the fact comprehensive medical solutions are often a vital part of the physical process of recovery for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who more than likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease because of their addiction, it is vital that these clients get the health care needed along with any rehab services for substance abuse issue.

Gays and Lesbians

It is crucial that gays and lesbians receive quality rehab services in a treatment setting that is discreet and with treatment professionals at their disposal who comprehend the distinctive challenges that they experience in life. Because drug use for gays and lesbians may also be triggered because of the problems they face because of their sexual preference, a rehab that can help them handle these problems and give them the confidence they may have lacked prior to arriving in rehab can be a crucial aspect of treatment for gay and lesbian clients.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to meet part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab frequently receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with alcohol and drug rehab requirements enforced with them in sentencing especially naturally when successfully graduating a drug rehab program.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug abuse because of the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services intended for them when substance abuse treatment is required. Aside from ASL, such services can include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the help they need in drug and alcohol treatment.

Spanish

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

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't cover the total cost of rehab or will only pay for part of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but people in fact have a much more leverage because they can choose whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many men and women encounter. In addition, treatment facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid if the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may choose to investigate the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not an option. When someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they may qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance will handle both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but usually only inside the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans generally cover some kind of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol treatment center which is inside their network of providers and there can be other restrictions including how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can select an excellent program they prefer and meet with a rehabilitation counselor to ascertain if their insurance covers it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the costs of certain substance abuse treatment services. Detoxification services, outpatient and inpatient facilities as well as partial hospitalization are all paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare representative. There could be some limitations as to the length of time a stay in inpatient alcohol and drug rehabilitation is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before you begin treatment so that it is clear the length of time and individual can remain in the rehab facility of preference.
