Drug Rehab Programs in Ohio

There are a number of drug rehab programs in Ohio which provide addiction treatment services for adults and adolescents. Drug rehab programs in Ohio, may or may not include a drug detox or alcohol detox program. It is important to discuss this aspect of a drug rehab program with intake staff, as it can make a tremendous difference in a person’s addiction treatment. Secondly, each drug rehab program and alcohol rehab program in Ohio might have a different drug rehab philosophy, as each drug rehab in Ohio might specialize in treating different populations. An example might be a drug rehab that specializes in the gay, lesbian and bisexual population, a drug rehab that has an effective dual diagnosis treatment program or a drug rehab program capable of treating an eating disorder. It can be a challenging experience to try and decide which drug rehab program in Ohio is best for you.

Recovery Connection® can match your drug rehab needs with a drug rehab program capable of meeting them. Not every drug rehab program in Ohio is the right one for you. With our vast knowledge of what each drug rehab program in Ohio can provide, we can make this process much less stressful for you.

Alcohol Rehab Programs in Ohio

Alcoholism and alcohol dependency fall into the same category. Alcohol is physically addicting and alcoholism can have devastating effects on a person’s family, employment, health, finances and emotional well being. It is quite difficult to recover from the disease of alcoholism on one’s own, due to the alcohol withdrawal symptoms one experiences upon discontinuing alcohol use.
There are alcohol rehabs in Ohio which differ in alcohol rehab services and the patients the alcohol rehab program in Ohio treat. There are federally funded alcohol rehab programs in Ohio for those people that are financially challenged, alcohol rehab programs in Ohio for adults and adolescents and alcohol rehab programs in Ohio for those persons with private insurance and an ability to pay for alcohol rehab treatment.

For someone not in the alcohol treatment arena, knowing how to differentiate between one alcohol rehab program in Ohio and another program can be quite difficult. It is important to find out whether the alcohol rehab program in Ohio you are looking at has their own alcohol detox program, whether the alcohol rehab has a comprehensive family program and which special addiction treatment needs the alcohol rehab in Ohio meet. An example is whether the alcohol rehab in Ohio can treat someone with a dual diagnosis, an eating disorder or whether the alcohol rehab in Ohio is gay friendly for the GLBT population.

Allow Recovery Connection® to answers these questions for you as you search for an alcohol rehab program in Ohio. Let us match your alcohol rehab needs with the alcohol rehab services that are available. Call 1-800-99-DETOX.

Gay Friendly Drug Rehab and Gay Friendly Alcohol Rehabs in Ohio

While a person who is gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender (GLBT) can receive addiction treatment or alcohol treatment in any alcohol rehab program in Ohio or drug rehab program, not all drug rehab programs or alcohol rehab programs in Ohio are designed to meet their specific needs. That is to say, that there are not many drug rehab programs or alcohol rehab programs in Ohio that have addiction treatment staff trained in how to deal with issues such as “coming out”, internalized homophobia, homophobia, gay relationships or any other issues pertinent to the GLBT community. For a gay man or woman in Ohio, secure in their sexuality, it might not make a difference, but for the vast majority of gay men and women, a gay friendly drug rehab in Ohio or gay alcohol rehab in Ohio, might mean the difference between recovery and relapse.

An effective gay drug rehab in Ohio, gay alcohol rehab in Ohio or gay friendly drug rehab in Ohio should have as a minimum, addiction treatment groups specific to the GLBT population, an addiction treatment staff trained in the attitudes and issues surrounding the GLBT population, an addiction treatment staff that has dealt with any homophobic issues they might have and a passion to treat the GLBT community. It is important that any drug rehab or addiction treatment program in Ohio that claims to treat the GLBT population provide them with a safe setting in which to deal with issues that concern the heterosexual population.

To locate a gay friendly drug rehab in Ohio or gay friendly alcohol rehab in Ohio, you can call Recovery Connection® at 1-800-993-3869.

Drug Abuse and Alcohol Abuse in Ohio (from DEA)

The primary drug threat in Ohio is powder cocaine and crack cocaine. The most violent crimes in the state are attributed to its distribution and abuse. Also, the rising availability of high-purity, low cost heroin is creating a large user population with a greater physical risk to users, who are younger than ever before. In the northern Ohio region, South American and Mexican black tar heroin are prevalent, while in the southern Ohio region, Mexican black tar heroin is predominant. Marijuana remains the most abused drug in the state. Ohio is a source area for marijuana cultivation, as well as a distribution point for Mexican marijuana from the southwest border. Club drugs and MDMA (ecstasy) are also growing in popularity in urban areas. Meanwhile, methamphetamine manufacturing and use are increasing, but has not reached the levels of other states in the Midwest.

Cocaine:

Cocaine HCL and crack combined constitute the greatest drug threat in Ohio. Cocaine is transported into Ohio from the southwest border, including California and Texas, as well as from Miami, Florida and New York City. Detroit, Michigan and Chicago, Illinois serve as transshipment points and distribution centers for cocaine shipped from the southwest border and transported throughout Ohio. Mexican and Dominican criminal groups and to a lesser extent other ethnic criminal groups are the principal transporters and wholesale distributors of multi-kilogram quantities of powdered cocaine in Ohio. Gram quantities sell between $100-$120, ounce quantities, $750-$1400, and kilograms $22,500 - $32,000. The purity levels for cocaine HCL range from 32.54 to 72.75 percent. Purity levels for crack cocaine range from 19 to 63.7 percent. The Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services data indicates that the number of treatment admissions for cocaine abuse for 2003 was 9,879.

Heroin:

Heroin distribution and abuse are increasing in Ohio. Heroin signature analysis indicates that South American and Mexican black tar are prevalent in the northern Ohio region. In the southern Ohio region Mexican black tar heroin is predominant. Dominican criminal groups control the distribution of South American heroin, while Mexican criminal groups control the distribution of Mexican black tar heroin. At the retail-level, African-American, Dominican, and Mexican criminal groups are involved in heroin distribution. Heroin is shipped into Ohio from major distribution centers such as Chicago, Detroit, New York and various cities along the southwest border. Heroin is also transported on commercial airline flights into Ohio. Wholesalers use major Ohio cities such as Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus, and Toledo as distribution centers for smaller cities in and outside the state. Gram quantities sell between $140-$250 and ounce quantities $2400-$7000. The purity levels range from 23.5 to 57 percent . The Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services data indicates the number of treatment admissions for heroin abuse increased overall from 6,878 in 2002 to 7,416 in 2003.

Methamphetamine:

Methamphetamine manufacturing and use are increasing in the state of Ohio. Local independent criminal groups, outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMG’s) and, to a lesser extent, Mexican criminal groups are primarily responsible for shipping methamphetamine into and distributing it throughout Ohio. Methamphetamine is also shipped into Ohio predominantly through mail and package delivery services. Purity levels range from 7.425 to 100 percent. Amphetamine/methamphetamine abuse in Ohio is prevalent and comparative to rates of abuse in other states in the region. Crystal meth addiction has proven to be a very difficult addiction to recover from.

Ecstasy and Club Drugs:

The use of Club Drugs such as Ecstasy (MDMA), GHB, Ketamine, and LSD has steadily increased in Ohio. Club Drugs are growing in popularity among young adults and juveniles, particularly in most urban areas of the state where “Rave” parties are also increasing. MDMA is the club drug of choice and represents the greatest future threat to Ohio’s youth. Most MDMA available in Ohio is produced outside the United States, typically in laboratories in the Netherlands and Belgium and transported through express mail services and by couriers on commercial airlines through distribution centers such as Miami, New York City, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. MDMA also reaches Ohio from Canada via New York and is transported via the interstate highways and public modes of transportation. Most traffickers of MDMA are loose-knit independent entrepreneurs. Retail dealers typically are suburban teenagers, usually high school or college students. The pills are sold at an average of $25 per pill.

Marijuana:

Marijuana continues to be the most widely abused and readily available illicit drug throughout the state of Ohio. The available supply of marijuana ranges from pound to multi-hundred pound quantities. Ohio is a source area for marijuana. The rural areas of Ohio provide an adequate environment for the outdoor cultivation of cannabis, most of which occurs in the southern part of the state. In northern Ohio, the use of hydroponics and other sophisticated indoor growing techniques that produce sinsemilla with a high THC content continues to increase. Mexican marijuana is also frequently encountered in the state of Ohio. The marijuana is shipped from the southwest border states. Large quantities are shipped into Ohio mainly overland, and smaller quantities through package delivery services and the mail. Mexican criminal groups are the dominant wholesale suppliers of marijuana in Ohio. They supply multi-hundred kilogram quantities of marijuana to most districts throughout the state. Local independent and Jamaican criminal groups also are responsible for shipping and distributing wholesale amounts of marijuana into Ohio in multi-kilogram quantities. Ounce quantities of marijuana sell between $100-$250, pound quantities $800-$4000, and kilogram quantities $1800-$3000. The Ohio Department of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services data indicates that the number of treatment admissions for marijuana abuse increased from 17,896 in 2002 to 17,952 in 2003.

Prescription Drugs:

Current investigations indicate that diversion of oxycodone products (such as OxyContin®), hydrocodone products, and pseudoephedrine continues to be a problem in Ohio. Primary methods of diversion being reported are illegal sale and distribution by health care professionals and workers, and “doctor shopping” (going to a number of doctors to obtain prescriptions for a controlled pharmaceutical). Benzodiazepines such as Valium® and Xanax® (both brand name and the generic alprazolam) were also identified as being among the most commonly abused and diverted pharmaceuticals in Ohio.
