  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • It is important for an observer of a drug overdose to question the patient about what drugs they have taken, as by the time they reach the hospital, they may have be unconscious, and therefore may be unable to communicate.
  • Even though methadone is commonly used in treating heroin addiction, a large percentage of methadone patients end up needing treatment for methadone addiction.
  • The number of fatal drug overdoses in the U.S. has nearly doubled within the last ten years, according to the most recently available government statistics.
  • While a large percentage of people who have had a drug overdose have been reported to recover, a large percent of overdose cases have resulted in death.
  • An overdose from amphetamines is generally characterized by symptoms such as a rapid heartbeat, muscle cramps, seizures, psychosis, paranoia, and confusion, loss of motor control movement, lack of consciousness, cardiac arrest, and death.

Seniors/Older Adult Services

Whether it is evident or not, seniors and older adults encompass a significant 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 rehab centers which are prepared to treat seniors and older adults who are in need of rehabilitation for addiction issues. 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 find treatment before any long term consequences come about.
