Drug Addiction Facts

  • Once Ecstasy is consumed it takes only about 15 minutes for the drug to enter the bloodstream and reach the brain, and one "hit" of Ecstasy can last for 3 to 6 hours.
  • In high doses or when used concurrently with other drugs or alcohol, methadone can produce some of the same effects of heroin and other opiates.
  • Brain studies indicate that even acute short term use of Ecstasy can adversely affect the areas of the brain involved in higher thought processes, raising concerns regarding possible long-term effects on both infrequent and regular users of Ecstasy.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions in terms of intensity of care, for the reason that individual can maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehabilitation center while undergoing rehab services. Even though this might appear perfect it may not provide the required change of environment than many people in treatment need to have a successful rehab.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired can often be predisposed to alcoholism and substance abuse due to the problems that their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem can be difficult among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services readily available for them when drug abuse rehab is necessary. Besides ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video resources so that deaf and hearing impaired people are getting the support they require in alcohol and drug rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all drug and alcohol rehabilitation centers 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 any other time. Counselling, study information and so on are actually frequently accessible in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which deliver inpatient or residential treatment and outpatient Spanish treatment is available too around the country.

Other Languages

In every city in the U.S. there is someone struggling with substance abuse that isn't necessarily fluent in English, who might require treatment in whichever language it is that they are fluent in so that their needs can be met properly when in rehab. Thankfully, there are many alcohol and drug rehab centers who have counselors within their facility who speak other languages to make drug treatment the very best experience possible for any individual. Simply discover a quality drug rehabilitation program and find out if it is possible to receive treatment in other languages.

Self Payment

Self Payment is needed when someone's insurance isn't going to cover the entire cost of treatment or will only pay for some of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people in fact have a much more leverage due to the fact they can decide on whichever facility they would like without the restrictions from health insurers that so many individuals face. In addition, rehabilitation centers will frequently offer payment assistance for individuals whose only option is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Certain rehabilitation centers accept Medicaid when the individual cannot self pay or present another form of private medical insurance. Medicaid may only pay for outpatient and short-term treatment within a limited amount of facilities, and in cases like this individuals may want to investigate the self pay option and drum up any resources they can to fund a more quality rehab program which will get better results, say for example a long-term residential drug rehabilitation program.
