Statistics on Oceanside Substance Abuse
Treatment in Oceanside
Oceanside, through the integrative efforts of the CHSU, has put numerous efforts in place to ensure the statistics on drug and alcohol abuse become better. A lot of the work they do focus on preventive measures, encouraging people to stay away from substances altogether. At the same time, they have put measures for intervention in place in order to make sure people who do develop a dependency or addiction are able to get the help they need.
If people are identified as having a dependency or addiction, they will first be supported through a period of detox, ridding their bodies of the last remainders of their substance of choice. In some cases, this process is medically assisted, which means that they are provided with other forms of medication in order to help them manage the withdrawal symptoms. Making sure that people seek the medical attention they need during detox is very important, because the withdrawal symptoms of certain substances, particularly alcohol, have the potential to be life threatening.
Once patients has completed detox, it will be time for them to enter rehab. Oceanside has endeavored to ensure that patients can have their particular individual needs met when they go to rehab. As a result, there are both residential and outpatient facilities that people can go to. Additionally, these facilities can cater to all substance abuse issues, or specifically to a certain substance. Others are gender specific, or focus on the LGBTQ+ community, or on a certain faith. Whenever possible people are encouraged to enter residential rehab for treatment, and preferably for as long as possible. Those who have attended rehab for a 90 day period or more have been shown to be the most successful in terms of achieving long term sobriety. Regardless of which facility that patients go to, and the length of treatment, they must also be provided with significant aftercare.
Oceanside hopes that, through their integrated efforts, they can help avoid drug abuse in future generations. At the same time, they want to address those who have already fallen into the grips of addiction. Put together, they want to empower people to regain their health and happiness, and to become contributing members of society.
