Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are known in the field of alcohol and drug rehabilitation as dual diagnosis clients. These individuals must address both disorders when it's in treatment in order to find resolution because one often exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many alcohol and drug rehab centers who can specifically hone in on the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues face so that they can not only become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and never want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who may need substance abuse rehabilitation will often need solutions beyond what a traditional drug and alcohol treatment facility can provide. Due to the fact comprehensive medical services will often be an important part of the physical process of healing for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who more than likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease due to their addiction, it is crucial that these clients receive the medical care required together with any treatment services for their drug abuse problem.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who have trouble with drug abuse may have unique challenges they have to overcome while in rehabilitation, which rehab specialists within the rehab they choose to take part in should be keen of to ensure a complete recovery may be possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to pick a rehab that is accustomed to helping seniors and older adults handle the unique life and drug abuse problems that these clients face which can include a wider spectrum of services including health care and so on.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab due to a court order to fulfill a part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug and alcohol rehabilitation frequently receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when cooperating with drug and alcohol rehab requirements enforced on them in sentencing and also naturally when successfully completing a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when a person's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for part of it. In these instances, it may seem like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever program they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many men and women face. In addition, rehab centers will usually offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.
