Drug Addiction Facts

  • Ritalin is actually more potent than cocaine in its effect on the areas of the brain which produce dopamine, the "reward" chemical that the brain produces.
  • Using marijuana puts children and teens in contact with people who are users and sellers of other drugs, posing more of a risk that a marijuana user will be exposed to and urged to try more drugs.
  • A 2008 report from the "New York Times" addressed additional programs within the confines of inpatient substance treatment centers that have beneficial outcomes. These include psychotherapy techniques and cognitive behavior therapy.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody that must be safely managed through detoxification services when heavily dependent to drugs, or who wants a better spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health services during their rehabilitation process. You will find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services accessible.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders are what are known in the field of drug and alcohol treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must deal with both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution due to the fact one often triggers the other. Fortunately, there are numerous alcohol and drug treatment centers who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse issues face to enable them to not merely become abstinent but mentally secure and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and never feel the need to self medicate with alcohol and drugs.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehabilitation due to a court ruling to satisfy part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug treatment often receive reduced penalties, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug rehab specifications enforced on them as part of sentencing and also naturally when successfully graduating a drug treatment center.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse as a result of challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of the problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL and other assistance services readily available for them when substance abuse rehab is necessary. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are receiving the help they require in drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs possess the staff or resources to focus on the demands of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more centers that can do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than previously. Counselling, study data and so on are actually very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too around the country.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurers that so many people face. In addition, rehab programs will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into treatment.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can seek rehabilitation at drug rehabilitation centers which provide either inpatient or outpatient rehab if the facility is included in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the approval of their Medicare appointed physician, who must aid in setting up the person's treatment plan. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient rehabilitation being covered through Medicare Part B.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans typically cover some kind of alcohol and drug rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals may have to take part in an alcohol and drug treatment facility that's within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions like just how long their stay in rehabilitation is covered. Individuals can select a quality facility they prefer and consult with a rehab specialist to ascertain if their insurance will cover it.
