  • People in clubs who abuse codeine cough syrup normally mix their syrup with soft drinks or cocktails, while polydrug users mostly drink their syrup undiluted.
  • Some inpatient programs offer additional services, like meditation, animal therapy, gourmet cooking, crafts or community service.

With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential centers now being covered by many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anyone who desires it.

Detoxification

Detoxification from alcohol and drugs is a process which can be made much more manageable and safely overseen when in a proper detoxification or drug and alcohol treatment program. Often detoxification isn't risk free, and even with the best of intentions individuals who proceed through detoxification on their own in order to get sober could really be putting their own health and even their lives at risk. It is usually best to seek detoxification solutions inside a professional facility in order to avoid such risks and also to have a smooth transition from detoxification to treatment at a top quality alcohol and drug treatment program.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab program while receiving rehabilitation services. Although this might seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in treatment have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Pregnant/Postpartum Women

Pregnant and postpartum women don't just require help from a high quality treatment for their own health and wellbeing but also for the wellbeing of their unborn baby or the kid they've given birth to who has to be properly cared for while they become rehabilitated and in turn able to be a much better mother. Treatment possibilities exist that provide them and their child with sufficient wellness services whilst ensuring they acquire the treatment they need to become sober and be able to stay this way to become the very best mother they can be.

Women

Women need to have quality treatment in rehab but will also require particular attention to the unique issues they face because of gender. Males and females not only face different and unique problems in everyday life as a result of gender, but also may abuse alcohol and drugs for unique reasons. drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities which cater to women and the specific and unique needs that women face can help enormously on a women's road to permanent abstinence and a higher quality of life.

Men

Just as men and women face varying and different challenges in daily life which are specific to their gender, women and men might also face unique challenges in rehab which are gender-specific, and that's why a center designed specifically with these special needs and challenges at heart can be very ideal for someone looking for an effective treatment option.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of challenges their impairment impose on them. While detection of the issue can be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is necessary. Aside from ASL, such services may include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are obtaining the support they require in drug rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol treatment programs possess the staff or wherewithal to cater to the demands of Spanish speaking clients, but luckily there are more and more programs that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study information and the like are now very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which deliver inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't cover the entire cost of treatment or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may seem like a drawback but individuals actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever facility they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many men and women face. In addition, rehabilitation programs will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some treatment centers will take Medicaid if the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private health insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehab in a limited amount of facilities, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they are able to to pay for a more quality treatment facility that will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehab program.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug and alcohol treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't an option. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may be eligible for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. The majority of state financed insurance will take care of both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but usually only within the state which offers the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug and alcohol rehab service ranging from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug rehab programs. Individuals could have to participate in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that's inside their network of providers and there could be other restrictions including the amount of time their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can choose an excellent program they like and consult with a rehabilitation specialist to determine if their insurance will cover it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option made available from many different alcohol and drug treatment facilities in an effort to help clients afford rehab where this might not have been possible initially. For instance, one client's price for rehab could possibly be different and less than somebody else whose financial situation is better which makes them better able to pay the full cost of treatment. Registrars take into account other factors besides income including amount of dependents to ascertain the final cost using the sliding scale.
