Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of rehab services in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in several ways without the commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation program while undergoing rehab services. Even if this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than many people in rehabilitation have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers have the staff or resources to cater to the needs of Spanish speaking clients, but luckily there are more and more programs that are able to do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than previously. Therapy, study information and the like are now frequently obtainable in Spanish in both long and short terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehab is also available around the country.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug and alcohol treatment facilities provide payment assistance to help individuals who may not have enough money to self pay for treatment or whose medical insurance won't supply coverage or total coverage for their stay. For example, Sometimes insurance only pays for a short-term center when in fact a long-term program will be the more appropriate selection. To find out what payment assistance may be available, say for example a sliding fee scale, talk with the facility for details.
