Facts
- Nearly a million emergency room visits in 2009 resulted from use of an illicit drug, either alone or in combination with other types of drugs.
- Physicians should identify the need for drug rehab in their patients and make appropriate referrals through the widespread use of screening, brief intervention and referral to drug rehab facilities.
- Just one dose of morphine can block a process in the brain associated with learning and memory for as long as a full day after the drug has been administered.
- Doctors argue whether the withdrawal syndrome leaves individuals who take sleeping medication worse than they would be without the drug, but evidence suggests that it often does.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
A residential short-term treatment (30 days or less) program provides care 24 hours a day 7 days a week for an average of 30 days (or less) depending on the treatment center. The clients live at the rehab facility and are ensured a totally alcohol and drug-free environment through their recovery process. While in treatment they tackle their difficulties with drug and/or alcohol addiction while understanding how to go about their life without turning to drugs and alcohol to solve their difficulties. When the individual has completed their residential short-term treatment, they often continue their recovery process by heading into outpatient treatment, attending meetings, therapy or counseling. Greatly addicted people who have a long history of substance abuse will benefit from residing at a sober living home after they complete rehab. This will help them solidify their new found sobriety and give them strength and support.
