Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the lower end of the spectrum of treatment services in terms of level of care, because the individual is able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of having to stay in a rehabilitation center while receiving treatment services. Even if this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of environment than a lot of people in recovery need to experience a successful rehab.

Persons With Co-Occurring Mental And Substance Abuse Disorders

Persons with co-occurring mental and drug abuse issues are what are identified in the field of drug treatment as dual diagnosis clients. These clients must handle both disorders when it's in treatment in order to find resolution due to the fact one often triggers the other. Luckily, there are lots of drug rehabilitation centers who can specifically hone in on the problems that persons with co-occurring mental and substance abuse disorders face so that they can not simply become abstinent but mentally stable and also able to lead a much higher quality lifestyle and not want to self medicate with drugs and alcohol.

Gays and Lesbians

It is essential that gays and lesbians acquire excellent rehabilitation services in a rehabilitation environment which is discreet and has rehab specialists at their disposal who understand the distinctive problems that they can have to deal with in life. Because drug use for gays and lesbians might be triggered by the problems they face due to their sexual preference, a rehab that can help them handle these problems and give them the peace of mind they may have lacked prior to arriving in treatment is usually a crucial part of rehab for gay and lesbian clients.

Criminal Justice Clients

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

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be prone to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While discovery of this problem can often be difficult among the hearing impaired, you will find ASL along with other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse treatment is required. Besides ASL, such services can sometimes include assistive listening tools and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired individuals are receiving the support they require in drug rehab.

Spanish

Not all drug treatment centers have the staff or resources to focus on the requirements of Spanish speaking clientele, but luckily there are more and more programs that can do so because the necessity for Spanish services is higher than previously. Counselling, study info and the like are actually frequently accessible in Spanish in both long and short terms programs which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehab is available too nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage simply because they can choose whichever facility they would like without the limitations from health insurance companies that so many individuals face. In addition, rehab facilities will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance option available from numerous drug and alcohol treatment centers in an effort to help clients afford rehabilitation where this might not have been doable initially. For example, one client's fee for rehab might be different and less than another individual whose finances are better which makes them more prepared to pay for the full expense of treatment. Registrars take into account additional factors aside from income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost and using the sliding scale.
