What to Look for When Selecting a Treatment Center in Columbia, MD

The Right Program: A detailed interview and assessment process with a clinical professional. Look for an organization that assesses physical and mental health, as well as qualifications for your loved one’s specific needs. Make sure the organization you’re considering has skilled experience with the the drawbacks your loved on is facing.

If the organization isn’t right for your substance abuse treatment, ask if they have referrals for a more appropriate fit.

Professional Team: Look for a licensed, experienced organization that focuses on a team-oriented approach, working together to support each client and their family. Find a team that includes individual and family therapists, substance abuse counselors, psychiatrists, and dietitians.

highly credentialed team taking a holistic approach to care is critical to achieving successful outcomes from substance abuse and addiction treatments.

Safety: An organization that focuses on participant safety, both physical and emotional. Many people will discover through the treatment process that abstinence from all substances is the best choice for them. Through this journey, it is important to support participants in staying safe and reducing harm.

Find a support system you trust to aid your substance abuse and addiction treatment.

Mental Health and Trauma Training: Drug abuse and addiction generally co-occur with a mental health or trauma experience. It is important that a treatment program has the ability to treat not only substance abuse but also underlying mental health concerns and trauma.

Ideally, a program would have a psychiatrist on staff, and staff trained in trauma-informed care. A good support system believes recovery and healing are two sides of the same coin, and both are necessary for long-lasting success.

An Individualized Program: An organization that tailors the experience to the individual and their unique needs. Find a team that sees you or your loved one as a person and creates a support program based on what is needed. True change from substance abuse and addiction treatment comes from authentic connection and genuine investment.

Strengths Based: An approach that focuses on what is working and nurtures those activities, patterns, and behaviors to encourage health and vibrancy.

Evidence-Based Care: An organization that draws on research and time-tested practices for the best possible outcome. Research or ask about the therapy methods they use in addition treatment.

Family Oriented: Any large life challenge always affects and is impacted by the surrounding system. Find an organization that supports and integrates the whole family. No one walks the road to recovery alone.

Maryland’s Opioid Crisis

Columbia, MD has been named the best place to live in the United States by multiple sources, and this beautiful community looks as though it faces no problems.

However, as with any community, Columbia faces its own set of unique challenges, with substance abuse and addiction being at the forefront. Opioid related deaths have been on the rise in Maryland since 2010, with heroin overdoses reaching an all-time high in 2017.

On March 1, 2017, Governor Larry Hogan issued an executive order to declare a state of emergency regarding the opioid overdose crisis in Maryland. The implementation was based on the state’s overdose fatality data, prescribing data, and seizure data. The emergency declaration was intended to increase the state’s efforts to reduce the number of fatalities and non-fatal overdoses to coordinate programs for prevention, enforcement, treatment, and recovery services.

Columbia Substance Abuse Statistics

The Howard County Police Department reported 1,598 drug violations in 2018. Although this number may have decreased by about 100 from 2017, it is more than a 60% increase since 2014.

Much like Maryland as a whole, when it comes to drug overdose, opioids are responsible for the highest amount of overdose deaths. In 2018, Howard County reported 41 overdose deaths and 75% of them were opioid related.

How Columbia is Managing its Public Health Crisis

Government Funded Treatment

In May of 2019, Columbia opened The Howard House as an initiative to further provide the community with resources that support substance abuse recovery. The facility specializes in treatment for people who are struggling with addiction, regardless of their ability to pay. Clients will receive step-down care, including peer support, case management services, therapeutic behavioral health sessions, skill building and other outpatient treatment, and supportive care.

 

24/7 Crisis Services

With funding from The Maryland Behavioral Health Administration and a partnership with the county, Grassroots Crisis Intervention provides 24-hour crisis intervention, suicide prevention, shelter, and outreach services to individuals and families experiencing a personal, situational, mental health, or shelter crisis.

Columbia Drug & Alcohol Recovery Resources

In addition to seeking out support from addiction professionals, having a network of people that will build you up as you continue your sobriety is very important. Organizations like 12 Step Programs and SMART Recovery provide meetings that build up sober individuals and help to create a supportive community.
