Drug Addiction Facts

  • Studies indicate that adolescent marijuana use and early use of other illicit drugs make an individual more likely to continue using marijuana in their mid-30s or beyond.
  • Montgomery County, Ohio has 93 deaths attributed to heroin overdoses in 2012.
  • According to the Center for Disease Control, methadone use is riskier than other prescription painkiller use because levels build up in the body and may interfere with a person's normal heart rhythm or breathing.

100% Confidential.

Outpatient

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions regarding intensity of care, because the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a rehabilitation facility while receiving treatment services. Even though this might seem perfect it might not provide the required change of atmosphere than many individuals in recovery need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Persons With HIV/AIDS

Persons with HIV/AIDS who are in need of drug abuse rehab will very often require services beyond what a standard alcohol and drug rehabilitation program can deliver. Simply because extensive healthcare solutions tend to be a vital part of the physical recovery process for addicts with HIV/AIDS, who likely have experienced a progression and worsening of the disease due to their addiction, it is vital that these clients obtain the medical treatment required along with any rehabilitation services for substance abuse issue.

Gays and Lesbians

It is important that gays and lesbians obtain excellent treatment services in a rehab setting that is discreet and with treatment specialists available to them who understand the unique problems that they can have to deal with in life. Because drug abuse for gays and lesbians is sometimes triggered by the challenges they face due to their sexual preference, a facility which can help them handle these issues and give them the confidence that they've lacked before arriving in rehabilitation can be a crucial aspect of rehab for gay and lesbian clients.

Criminal Justice Clients

Criminal justice clients get into rehab due to a court ruling to fulfill part of their sentencing for a drug offense. Criminal justice clients in alcohol and drug treatment often receive reduced sentences, fines etc. when being cooperative with drug treatment requirements enforced on them in sentencing specifically of course when successfully graduating an alcohol and drug rehabilitation program.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehab facilities have the staff or resources to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more facilities that are able to do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than in the past. Counselling, study info and so on are actually very often obtainable in Spanish in both short and long terms programs which deliver inpatient or residential rehab and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is available too around the country.
