Facts

  • Youth who cohabit with alcoholics tend to score lower on tests in regards to family cohesion, intellectual and cultural orientation, recreational orientation, and independence.
  • When methadone is used to help an individual avoid opiate withdrawal symptoms, doses of methadone are administered every four to six hours and are slowly decreased until withdrawal symptoms have disappeared, then dosages are discontinued. It is likely that the individual will become dependent to Methadone however and the individual should research all options before choosing this one.

Hospital Inpatient - Windham

A person who is heavily addicted to drugs or alcohol will benefit tremendously by attending a hospital inpatient rehab program. These types of programs are focused towards physical health, mental health and medical stabilization. Recovering persons will have access to medication as well as medical staff around the clock. While not every drug addict needs this level of care, it is useful to those who have severe physical addiction problems to drugs or alcohol. Hospital inpatient programs often last several days to even up to a month. Once the hospital inpatient portion of their treatment plan is complete they may choose to participate at a sober living program or transfer into an outpatient program.
