  • A 2010 study conducted by Colorado University on 300 adolescents diagnosed with ADHD found that the symptoms of the 150 patients that were administered cognitive-behavioral therapy along with an inactive sugar pill disappeared just as effectively as the 150 adolescents who were given both the therapy and a chemically active Ritalin-type drug.
  • An overdose of prescription stimulants can be potentially fatal, and can include symptoms such as high or low blood pressure, irregular heartbeat, nausea, panic, rapid breathing, restlessness, vomiting, fatigue, hallucinations, abdominal cramps, aggressiveness, depression, convulsions, tremors or coma.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in many different settings and with various rehab lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being paid by many insurance plans, there is no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab services with regards to level of care, for the reason that individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways without the commitment of having to remain in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehabilitation services. Even though this may seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in recovery require to have a successful rehabilitation.

Adolescents

When adolescents get involved in any kind of drug abuse, it is crucial that they receive top quality care to stop the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't worsen and possibly put their future in jeopardy. Due to the fact adolescent substance abuse which persists often carries on into adulthood, mothers and fathers must remain astute and get their adolescent rehabilitation the moment an issue is observed in a center which handles adolescent drug use. A lot of programs which deal with adolescents provide both inpatient and residential rehab, that has been shown to be the most beneficial settings for rehab clients of this age.

Men

Just as men and women encounter varying and different challenges in everyday life which are specific to their gender, men and women could also face unique challenges in treatment that are gender specific, which explains why a program designed specifically with these unique needs and obstacles at heart can be extremely helpful for someone searching for a powerful rehabilitation option.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the choice or ordered to rehab as a term of their sentencing. Sometimes, the offender can pick which treatment program they wish to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options in order to progress in their lives without having to be penalized further.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab due to a court order to satisfy part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug rehab often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug and alcohol rehab specifications enforced with them in sentencing and particularly naturally when successfully graduating a drug and alcohol rehab facility.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and drug abuse because of the problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of this problem can often be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL as well as other assistance services designed for them when substance abuse rehab is required. Apart from ASL, such services might include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the support they need in drug treatment.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehab or will only pay for some of it. In these cases, it may seem like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many people encounter. Likewise, rehabilitation programs will usually provide payment assistance for individuals whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within 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're able to to cover a more quality treatment program which will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of drug and alcohol treatment if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone does not have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they can check with their Social Services office in their area to determine if they are and then apply. The majority of state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which provides the insurance.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some sort of alcohol and drug rehabilitation service which range from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could have to take part in a drug rehabilitation facility that is within their network of providers and there might be other limitations including just how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick a good facility they prefer and consult with a rehab specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option provided by numerous alcohol and drug treatment facilities to help help clients pay for rehab where this may not have been doable originally. For instance, one client's price for rehab might be different and lower than someone else whose financial situation is better making them better able to spend the money for full expense of rehabilitation. Registrars take into account variables besides income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many alcohol and drug treatment programs offer payment assistance to help individuals who may possibly not have enough money to self pay for rehab or whose medical insurance won't provide coverage or full coverage for his or her stay. By way of example, Sometimes insurance only pays for a short-term center when in reality a long-term center will likely be the more ideal option. To find out what payment assistance may be available, for instance a sliding fee scale, seek advice from the program for details.
