Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions regarding intensity of care, as the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehab center while receiving rehab services. Even if this might appear ideal it might not provide the required change of surroundings than many people in rehabilitation need to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who require substance abuse treatment will frequently require services beyond what a standard alcohol and drug rehabilitation facility can provide. Because comprehensive medical services are often an important aspect of the physical process of healing for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who very likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease because of their addiction, it is important that these clients get the medical treatment needed in conjunction with any rehab solutions for their drug use issue.

Gays and Lesbians

It is important that gays and lesbians acquire quality rehab solutions in a treatment environment which is discreet and has treatment professionals available to them who comprehend the unique problems they have to deal with in life. Because drug use for gays and lesbians might be triggered by the challenges they face due to their sexual preference, a rehab which will help them resolve these problems and give them the peace of mind they may have lacked prior to arriving in treatment is usually a crucial aspect of rehab for gay and lesbian clients.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to satisfy part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol treatment often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug rehabilitation requirements enforced on them as part of sentencing and also of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehab program.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of the issue can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse rehab is needed. Besides ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the help they require in alcohol and drug treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehab centers will take Medicaid if the individual cannot self pay or present some other form of private health insurance. Medicaid may possibly pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may wish to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality treatment facility which will get better results, like a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.
