If you are in need of addiction treatment, an inpatient drug rehab facility is the best option for many who are trying to get clean. Regardless of your addiction, how long you have been addicted, or what drug or alcohol you are trying to stop using, the right facility is going to go a long way in assisting you in your quest to get clean and to learn to live your life without the dependency on drugs or alcohol in your daily lifestyle.[]
When 12 Step fellowships and drug rehabs became accepted by the mainstream as an admirable way to deal with addiction to alcohol and 'other drugs', nicotine did not make the list of 'dangerous drugs'. For many years people trying to get and stay clean and sober in a 12 Step Fellowship or through a treatment center, were encouraged to NOT stop smoking. People were told, "one addiction at a time", and to take care of the 'worst' addiction, then worry about stopping smoking later. More people die of nicotine addiction than all other illicit drugs combined. It has been shown time and again that people who continue to use tobacco have higher relapse rates. The user is still caught up in the cycle of addiction, craving and satisfying, craving and satisfying. The very act of inhaling mimics the pushing down of the feelings that nicotine is so good at. It numbs the feelings.
Today all quality and serious drug addiction recovery treatment centers treat nicotine addiction the same as any other addiction. People must not be using if they are in treatment. It is best to detox only once, and deal with all cravings while in the supportive treatment environment.A person may have been clean and sober from other drugs for some time but can't put down the tobacco. Or a person may have never had addictions to any other substance or behavior with the exception of nicotine. Either way, nicotine addiction kills and nicotine drug rehab works. Going to a treatment center, addiction recovery retreat or to a drug rehab is now acceptable and admirable behavior for the chronic smoker ready to face the real issues.
With the best inpatient drug rehab facilities, you also choose your treatment. Some things that make up the best facilities include: Around the clock care, by the best doctors, nurses, and highly trained staff.Your choice of treatment duration (from 1 week, to 1 year, or more).A holistic approach to quitting, which outpatient facilities do not provide.Support systems, and the fact that you are completely removed from temptation and people trying to lead you to make the wrong decisions.A guaranteed treatment, with support groups, and constant support, even when you complete the stint and duration of the treatment that you come in for
According to the Federal Bureau of Prisons, drug rehab assistance has existed within the prison system for twenty years. They must, as do programs available to the general public, implement the latest statistics, data and practices in order to provide the most effective treatment. The implementation of these programs fosters a genuine increase in positive behavior, inmate education, achievement of employment, interpersonal relationships with their loved ones, and improvement of well-rounded health. This also includes a marked reduction in relapse, criminality, recidivism and mental illness, which is reported on the Federal Bureau of Prisons website as a result of the use of their "current drug abuse treatment strategy" which, as stated earlier about community programs, is only limited by the local, state and Federal involvement in what each prison is able and willing to offer short and long term sentence carriers and which inmates will receive the much needed care.
Drug treatment provides healing and strengthening of the body during drug recovery process. The treatment plan includes detoxification process, dietary programs, health and fitness training, natural treatments, behavioral therapies, counseling, holistic techniques such as Pilates, Yoga, homeopathy and massage therapy. Damage from many years of substance abuse will start to resolve by employing a blend of modern medicine and alternative therapies. Several drug rehab programs provide pain management treatments like visualization and meditation.
After intake, addicted individuals are evaluated on a number of levels for secondary health and mental conditions that may require treatment during the recovery process. Medical assessment helps to recognize health problems that may have developed from extended periods of substance abuse, such as respiratory problems, heart disease, persistent infections or even the occurrence of communicable diseases.
Detoxification is just one step towards a drug-free life. Certain drugs may take a number of months before they leave a person's system, particularly when the user has become addicted to a substance for years. In addition, some addicts seem to function quite normally even when they are under the influence of cocaine, heroin and other illegal drugs. Medical intervention can minimize withdrawal symptoms, yet weekend programs may not provide excellent results. Drug rehab programs can only help patients who undergo the entire phase of detoxification.
A drug rehabilitation program provides total support to all needs of a patient instead of focusing only on drug abuse. In fact, most patients may suffer from a multitude of physical or mental health issues that must be treated promptly. Professional counseling, cognitive therapy, and behavioral modification have proven to be quite critical in any drug rehab program. Most importantly, medication and treatment are customized to the patient's particular needs.
With a drug rehabilitation program, an individual can overcome several issues such as lack of self-esteem, violent behavior, and social concerns. Other patients may also be involved in minor or serious criminal activities, and these issues must be addressed, as well. The goal of a drug rehab center is to remove the addict from a familiar environment, so they may be prepared to function and thrive in a drug-free atmosphere that can ensure their total recovery.When the phases of withdrawal have passed, patients undergo a directed treatment program that targets their psychological dependency on the drug. They are also taught to strengthen their social and behavioral skills, so they may be able to function well without the influence of the drug. This stage includes support group, family and individuals counseling. Trained professionals also provide the ideal behavioral or occupational therapy that can help rebuild the patient's social and life skills.
