Choosing the right alcohol rehab clinic can be difficult and confusing but it is important and can be a key factor in whether a treatment programme succeeds or fails.
Each individual rehab clinic will have their own approach to alcohol treatment so you’ll need to do some research about different clinics and your needs. Research clinics yourself and seek out reliable information both online and from others. Someone else who’s been through alcohol dependency may be able to recommend a good clinic or give you advice on choosing one.
Obviously you’ll need to consider the price. Think about how much you can realistically afford and try not to overstretch yourself as this could make things worse, particularly if alcohol problems are linked to stress. A lot of people get help from their family or from some kind of loan but again, tread carefully to avoid debt problems.
Think about where the rehab centre is located in relation to your friends and loved one. If it’s too far away it may be difficult to receive visitors. It’s true that some people prefer not to have visitors, though. If quiet and isolation is important to you find out if the centre offers that.
What kind of accommodation does the rehab clinic offer? Some offer single rooms, whilst others are shared. Some people in treatment like to share a room but others want to have their own room.
Some types of treatment suit some people more than others and it’s important to know what’s on offer. Different clinics will offer different treatments. Ask at the clinic what treatments they offer and how each person’s treatment programme is decided.

Question by : Can the uninsured and unemployed go to alcohol rehab too?
Ok, I am 20 years old now and I am no longer in denial of being an alcoholic. I realize it now. My life is so messed up and I want to change before things get even worse.

Substance abuse involves using drugs and/or alcohol excessively. Individuals with a substance abuse problem must make an effort to beat their addictions. This may involve them quitting on their own or entering a drug and alcohol rehab facility. Some individuals are able to overcome addictions without external help. However, many more people will require the support and expertise of another individual or need to enter a rehab center.
Individuals can become addicted to all types of substance. Substance abuse may include the excessive use of the drugs like cocaine, heroin, prescription medications and also alcohol. Substance abuse not only negatively effects the persons who use the drugs or drink the alcohol but also those who love and care for them. A person may not be able to work or get a job because they are always high. Because they have few sources of income, it can be hard to take care of their basic needs and also those of their family if they have one.
Children of people with substance abuse problems also suffer a great deal. Not only will they not often have the physical things that they need such as a roof over their head, food and clothes, they also aren’t able to have a healthy relationship with their parent or family member who suffers from the addiction. For this reason and for others, it is very important that someone with a substance abuse problem does whatever is necessary to get help.
Overcoming substance abuse is rarely easy. Some people will struggle with it their entire lives. However, it is possible. Many people do overcome their addictions and are able to lead a very normal, fulfilling and successful life.
A study done by the National Household Survey on Drug Abuse found that just over 10 years ago, 13 million Americans were believed to use illicit drugs. That number has undoubtedly increased since then. It also found that nearly 10% of individuals that live in the United States were dependent on alcohol or abused it. This is a very large number of individuals. It is imperative that those numbers decrease because not only does alcohol and drug use and addiction have a negative impact on the person that uses or drinks, but also on society at large.
Fortunately there are many resources within the community that are designed to help people stop using drugs and abusing alcohol. There are drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs in every state, hundreds of them in some. It is possible to enter a substance abuse treatment facility that works with individuals who use particular type drug such as opiates or prescription medication. These niche substance abuse facilities can offer targeted help. Many of these are affordable, some are even free. One of the best things a person with substance abuse problems can do is to reach out and see what resources are available
Inpatient drug rehabilitation is also known as residential drug rehab. The terms can be used interchangeably and describe the same type of facility. Inpatient drug rehabilitation programs require the patient to live in the facility during their stay. They will sleep there, eat all of their meals and receive treatment at the facility. This allows the program’s counselors and support team to offer around-the-clock and intensive care. Inpatient drug rehabilitation is not for everyone, but it is ideal for some. Below, we will take a look at who might benefit most from this form of treatment.
- Those in danger of relapsing if they go back home: Some individuals live in toxic environments that make it difficult for them to get clean or stay on course once they have stopped using drugs. One of the best ways for them to develop the strength that they need to get clean is to get out of that environment and into a safe, supportive one.
- Those that can afford to: Some inpatient drug rehabilitation programs are pricey especially those that are private. However, for those who can afford such treatment and need it, should give it a try. Care is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week and offers the right environment to focus on getting rid of ones addiction.
- Those who have had bad luck with outpatient programs: Individuals who have not had success with outpatient drug rehab may want to consider residential care. Maybe the more intensive environment where one is protected from the outside will serve the addict well and provide the attention and treatment he or she needs.
- Those with a very serious addiction: Individuals with very serious may require inpatient drug rehabilitation. These types of facilities may be best equipped to handle individuals who need a lot of treatment and care. These persons would also likely have lots of difficulty staying clean if they had the freedom that being on one’s own allows for.
Inpatient drug rehabilitation is a good choice for persons who suffer from very severe addictions. It also a great fit for those who might be in danger of relapsing if they went back home. Some people will be tempted to begin using drugs again if they are around the people that they routinely got high with. Inpatient drug rehabilitation will ensure that a person is about to get away from those negative influences until hopefully they are strong enough to stay away from these individuals themselves. This type of treatment can also be very helpful for persons that have severe addictions. These individuals will need intensive care and that is exactly what inpatient drug rehabilitation makes available.
