Drug Addiction Facts

  • Stimulant drugs are one of the few causes of cardiac death in otherwise normal children, making it impossible to detect the risk before it happens.
  • Older adults who drink put themselves at higher risks for falls, car crashes, and other unintentional injuries.
  • Physical addiction is characterized by the presence of tolerance (needing more and more of the drug to achieve the same effect).

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services are available in several settings and with various treatment lengths and plans to suit the various demands of clients with any type of and level of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being included in many insurance companies, there's no need to put off receiving substance abuse treatment services for anyone who needs it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, as the individual will be able to preserve their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a treatment program while receiving treatment services. Even though this may seem ideal it may not provide the much needed change of atmosphere than many individuals in rehabilitation have to have to experience a productive rehabilitation.

Seniors/Older Adults

Seniors and older adults who have trouble with drug use could have unique obstacles they have to conquer during treatment, which treatment professionals within the rehab they choose to be a part of have to be keen of in order that a complete recovery is possible. So for seniors and older adults, it is wise to pick a rehab that's used to helping seniors and older adults address the distinctive life and drug use problems that these clients face which can include a wider spectrum of solutions including medical care and the like.

Women

Women need high quality rehabilitation in rehab but will also need particular attention to the distinctive issues they face because of their gender. Men and women not just face varying and unique challenges in life as a result of gender, but also may abuse drugs and alcohol for unique reasons. alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs which cater to women and the distinctive and unique needs that women face often helps enormously on the women's path to long term abstinence and a higher quality lifestyle.

Men

Similar to how men and women face varying and different challenges in everyday life that happen to be specific to their gender, men and women can also encounter unique challenges in rehabilitation which are gender-specific, which explains why a rehab designed specifically with these unique needs and challenges at heart can be extremely helpful for someone searching for a powerful rehabilitation option.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders are often given the choice or ordered to rehabilitation as part of sentencing. Quite often, the offender can choose which rehab center they wish to attend. Upon successful completion, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of decreased sentencing options to enable them to move forward in their lives without getting penalized any more.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients find their way into rehab as part of a court order to satisfy part of their sentencing for any drug offense. Criminal justice clients in drug rehabilitation often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug and alcohol rehab requirements enforced on them as part of sentencing and also of course when successfully graduating a drug and alcohol treatment program.

Other Languages

In every city in America there is someone experiencing drug use that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who may need treatment in whatever language it is that they are fluent in to ensure their needs may be catered to properly whilst in rehab. Thankfully, there are many alcohol and drug rehab facilities that have counselors on staff who speak other languages to make drug treatment the most effective experience possible for any individual. Simply find a high quality drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility and inquire if it is feasible to receive rehab in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance won't cover the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever program they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many men and women face. Likewise, rehab programs will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to enable them to get into rehab.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private health insurance plans typically cover some form of drug and alcohol rehabilitation service ranging from outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehab programs. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehab program that's within their network of providers and there might be other restrictions including the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can pick a good program they prefer and meet with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will take care of it.
