Drug Addiction Facts

  • In the United States, the rate of heroin use in high school aged children has increased dramatically over the last ten years, with over 2% of high school senior reporting such use at least once.
  • Everyone handles methadone differently, and one 50mg dose of methadone might be tolerable for one individual, but may cause a methadone overdose in another.
  • Fentanyl withdrawal symptoms can occur within just a few hours of the last dose, and will typically become worse and worse and more intense until they reach a plateau, and will typically subside within a few days to a week.

Hospital Inpatient

Hospital inpatient services are available to anyone who has to be safely managed through detox services when seriously addicted to drugs and/or alcohol, or who wants a better spectrum of care such as someone who has a dual diagnosis and also needs mental health solutions during their rehab process. There are both short-term and long-term hospital inpatient services available.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of rehabilitation services with regards to level of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of needing to stay in a treatment center while receiving treatment services. While this might appear perfect it may not provide the required change of atmosphere than lots of people in rehab require to experience a productive rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often prone to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use because of the challenges their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this issue can sometimes be hard among the hearing impaired, you'll find ASL as well as other assistance services available for them when drug abuse rehab is needed. Apart from ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video resources to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are getting the support they require in alcohol and drug treatment.
