Chula Vista, CA, has a significant problem with prescription medication abuse. It is estimated that some 3,667 people currently abuse prescription drugs in a non-medical way. The heroin epidemic, fortunately, has not yet affected this city, with just 77 people known to be addicted to heroin. One of the reasons for this is believed to be the fact that Chula Vista is a reasonably affluent city, which means people can continue to have access to prescription drugs. That said, city officials are putting various intervention methods in place to improve on these statistics and help people to stay away from addictive substances altogether.

Chula Vista Addiction Treatment

The healthcare system in Chula Vista is under considerable strain due to substance abuse. Statistics show that hospital admissions related to substances were:

  • 340 due to heroin
  • 170 due to Xanax
  • 152 due to cocaine
  • 135 due to OxyContin
  • 119 due to Percocet
  • 101 due to Lortab
  • 84 due to Vicodin
  • 67 due to meth
  • 34 due to ecstasy

To address this issue, Chula Vista aims to make it easier for people to access detox and rehab treatment. It is home to various residential and outpatient facilities where people can seek the help they need. There is a particular focus on ensuring that the programs offered by the treatment facilities are tailored specifically to the needs of the patient. They are also encouraged, as much as possible, to attend residential rehab, which has far greater success rates.

Additionally, people are encouraged to attend long term rehab as much as possible. While treatment facilities do offer short term (30 days) solutions, they all have systems in place to ensure people are able to remain within the facility should they require longer treatment. It is understood that people do not beat their addiction simply by completing detox. Rather, they need to continue to work on their overall recovery through rehab. Significant aftercare programs have also been put in place so that people can continue to receive support once they have completed rehab.

To ensure that help is out there for everybody, Chula Vista has also launched a number of facilities where medical detox is available. This includes methadone programs and buprenorphine programs, where people can be helped through their detox period through other medication, thereby avoiding the withdrawal symptoms. Medically assisted detox is also available for those who abuse alcohol, although this is almost always provided on an inpatient basis, due to the associated potentially life threatening dangers associated with withdrawing from alcohol.

Chula Vista is putting various efforts in place to improve its statistics on drug abuse. This includes working together with physicians to reduce the rates of prescription. At the same time, intervention and education efforts are in place within schools and community organizations, in the hopes of having fewer young people decide to experiment with substances. Finally, a lot of money is invested in improving services available to those who now are in the grips of an addiction, so that they can regain control over their lives.
