Various circumstances play into deciding which rehab services are going to be most beneficial to you. For instance, your drug addiction history, the type of drugs that you are addicted to, the length of time you have been addicted and various aspects of your health and faith can all be taken into consideration when choosing which rehab services are right for you. Here’s a look at some questions you should ask yourself when choosing the best rehab services for yourself.
What is my health like? Do I need special health related services?
First and foremost, you want to make sure that your rehabilitation from addiction is a safe rehabilitation which means you’ve got to make sure that you choose rehab services that are relevant to your overall health. Addiction is devastating to the human body and can have a lasting impact on your health. Depending on the type of drugs you have used as well as the length of time you have been a drug user, you may have various health needs.
If you have used intravenous drugs then you may have HIV, Hepatitis or one of many blood infections that require treatment. If you are addicted to prescription medications there’s a chance you need special medical attention for your heart or respiratory system during rehab. When you are choosing the best rehab program for your individual situation consider your health risks and also consider the potential for health risks that you don’t know of prior to choosing rehab services. Talk with the rehab center about the types of rehab services that may be most beneficial to you and safest for your health.
Do I need detox? How bad are the withdrawal symptoms that I feel when I stop using?
Withdrawal is a very strong part of the overall treatment process and understanding how you will deal with withdrawal is vital when you are choosing rehab services. If you are addicted to a drug that comes with a strong physical dependence such as heroin, prescription medications or alcohol then you will most definitely need to choose a rehab center that provides detox services. Consider whether you would like to have medications or natural elements used to help you overcome withdrawal prior to choosing a rehab center. This will help you to choose the types of services that are going to be best for you. For instance, you may look for a rehab center that provides medication and medical intervention, you may seek a rehab center that provides natural remedies or holistic remedies during detox.
Is outpatient rehab right for me?
If you are addicted to drugs or alcohol but you have continued to maintain a job or go to school then you could probably benefit from the rehab services that are provided at an outpatient rehab center. Outpatient rehab centers, unlike inpatient rehab centers, do not require you to live in the facility where you are receiving treatment while you get the help that you need and can provide some added benefits if you have a job or go to school. If you are able to continue to maintain and function despite your addiction, an outpatient rehab center may provide the right level of services for you.
