Drug Addiction Facts

  • Cocaine use can trigger chaotic heart rhythms, called ventricular fibrillation, the physical symptoms of which may include chest pain, nausea, blurred vision, fever, muscle spasms, convulsions and coma.
  • Ecstasy affects many of the same areas of the brain that are targeted by other addictive drugs, and studies show that animals prefer the drug, much like they do cocaine, over other pleasurable stimuli, which is another hallmark of most addictive drugs.
  • Older adults who drink put themselves at higher risks for falls, car crashes, and other unintentional injuries.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anybody who needs to be safely managed through detox services when heavily dependent to drugs and/or alcohol, or who requires a better spectrum of care such as someone who is dealing with a dual diagnosis so also needs mental health services as part of their treatment procedure. You will find both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services offered.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the low end of the spectrum of rehab solutions regarding level of care, since the individual will be able to keep their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation program while undergoing treatment services. Even though this may appear ideal it might not provide the required change of atmosphere than lots of people in recovery have to have to have a productive rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse problems are what are known in the field of drug rehab as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders whilst in rehab to find resolution because one usually exacerbates the other. Luckily, there are many drug rehab programs who are able to specifically address the challenges that persons with co-occurring mental and drug use issues face so that they can not only become sober but mentally stable and also able to lead a much better quality lifestyle and not wish to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who may need drug abuse rehab will very often require solutions beyond what a traditional drug treatment facility will be able to deliver. Because extensive healthcare solutions tend to be an important part of the physical process of recovery for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who most likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease due to their addiction, it is essential that these clients receive the medical care needed together with any rehabilitation solutions for drug use issue.

Gays and Lesbians

It is crucial that gays and lesbians obtain excellent rehabilitation services in a rehabilitation setting that is discreet and has rehabilitation specialists available to them who understand the distinctive problems they experience in life. Because drug abuse for gays and lesbians is sometimes triggered because of the challenges they face due to their sexual preference, a program that can help them resolve these problems and give them the peace of mind that they've lacked before arriving in rehabilitation can be a crucial aspect of rehabilitation for gay and lesbian clients.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use due to challenges that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is needed. Apart from ASL, such services can include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials so that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the support they need in alcohol and drug rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug rehab programs have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that can do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than any other time. Therapy, study information and the like are now very often accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms centers which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Other Languages

In each and every city in America there's someone fighting drug abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might need treatment in whatever language it is that they are fluent in so that their needs can be met properly whilst in rehabilitation. Thankfully, there are numerous drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs which have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make drug rehab the best experience possible for any individual. Simply look for a high quality drug and alcohol treatment facility and inquire if it is possible to receive rehab in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a disadvantage but people actually have a great deal of leverage because they can decide on whichever program they would like without the restrictions from health insurance providers that so many individuals encounter. In addition, rehabilitation centers will often provide payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehabilitation.

Medicaid

Certain rehab programs accept Medicaid when the individual is unable to self pay or present another kind of private health care insurance. Medicaid may possibly cover outpatient and short-term treatment in a limited amount of centers, and in this instance individuals may wish to investigate the self pay alternative and drum up any resources they're able to to pay for a more quality rehabilitation center that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

Medicare

Medicare recipients can receive rehabilitation at drug rehabilitation facilities which provide either inpatient or outpatient treatment if the program is in the network of Medicare-participating providers and with the consent of their Medicare appointed physician, who must help out with setting up the individual's treatment strategy. Inpatient solutions are provided through Medicare Part A, with up front costs being the same as any other kind of hospital stay, and outpatient treatment being paid for through Medicare Part B.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid can be used to cover the costs of alcohol and drug treatment if other kinds of insurance or self payment aren't a possibility. If a person doesn't have private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they might qualify for state insurance, they should talk with their Social Services office within their area to ascertain if they are and then fill out an application. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but typically only within the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which plan you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans generally cover some type of alcohol and drug treatment service including outpatient treatment to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug treatment facilities. Individuals may have to take part in a drug and alcohol treatment facility that is inside their network of providers and there may be other limitations including how long their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select a good center they like and speak with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance will cover it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Military insurance which includes VA and Tricare does cover the costs of particular substance abuse rehab services. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are paid for by military insurance, although military members may need pre-authorization in which case they can liaise with their VA or Tricare consultant. There can be some limitations regarding how much time a stay in inpatient drug rehab is allowed, and all of these questions will be answered before you begin rehabilitation so that it's clear the length of time and individual can stay in the treatment center of choice.
