  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Amphetamine abuse is a growing problem in the United States with hundreds of illegal amphetamine producing laboratories being found and closed each year.
  • In the state of Massachusetts between the years of 2002-2007, 3,265 people died from opiate-related overdoses.
  • According to a current government study that covered a 10-year period, the increasing role of opioid painkillers in unintentional drug overdose deaths, suggests that opioid-related prevention methods would be well targeted.
  • Fentanyl is hundreds of times more potent than street heroin, and tends to produce significantly worse respiratory depression, making it a dangerous drug for heroin abusers to play around with.
  • Heroin users will ultimately become tolerant to the drug over time and after repeated use, and often find themselves needing increasingly larger doses of the drug to achieve the same intensity or effect they experienced when they first began using heroin.

Seniors/Older Adult Services

Whether it is evident or not, seniors and older adults comprise a considerable percentage of individuals in the United States who struggle with drug and/or alcohol abuse and addiction. As the baby boomer generation ages, this will become an even bigger problem with an even bigger need for drug and alcohol treatment programs which are prepared to treat seniors and older adults who are in need of rehabilitation for addiction problems. Seniors and older adults are faced with many physical challenges as a result of their age, which can have an impact on treatment outcome if not addressed concurrently. It is beneficial for seniors and older adults to locate rehabilitation before any long term consequences occur.
