Substance Abuse and Rehabilitation in Oregon

In 2014, approximately 40% of the patients admitted to inpatient addiction treatment programs in Oregon were admitted for alcohol abuse. Around 20% were admitted for addiction to methamphetamine or amphetamines. Marijuana, heroin and opiates were also some of the most common drugs responsible for admissions to Oregon treatment centers.

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), 26,905 patients ages 12 and older were admitted to an Oregon in treatment center in 2014, around 0.67% of the state’s population. The number of patients entering residential rehab is likely to increase in the coming years due to the passage of Measure 110, which focuses on helping people with drug addiction and alcohol addiction get the help they need rather than criminalizing addiction.

Drug abuse and alcohol misuse are especially prevalent in the Portland-Vancouver-Hillsboro metropolitan area, as reported by SAMHSA. From 2005 to 2010, approximately 394,000 people (ages 12 and older) in the Portland metro area reported the use of at least one illicit substance within the previous year, accounting for more than 20% of the population. The state’s overall rate was 19.6% during the same period.

Many people in Oregon also misuse prescription medications and alcohol. SAMHSA reports that 7.7% of the population of the Portland metro area (ages 12 and older) had engaged in the nonmedical use of prescription pain relievers within the past year during the 2005 to 2010 reporting period. This is higher than the Oregon rate of 6.6% and the national rate of 4.9%. Additionally, more than 18% of Oregon adults reported engaging in binge drinking in 2017.

An Astoria, Oregon, Residential Treatment Center

We use a holistic approach to recovery, so in addition to medical detox, individual therapy and other treatment services, you’ll also have opportunities to meditate or enjoy gourmet meals prepared by a chef who understands the unique needs of people recovering from alcohol and drug addiction.

Get Help for Co-Occurring Disorders at Our Oregon Treatment Center

Addiction and mental health disorders go hand in hand, so it’s helpful to treat co-occurring disorders while you’re addressing your substance use. If you’re depressed because of your drug use, for example, treating addiction may help relieve your depression symptoms and make it easier to maintain your sobriety. Many people also drink or use drugs to cope with the symptoms of an underlying mental illness. That’s why getting mental health treatment is so important if you have an addiction to drugs or alcohol.

Addiction Treatment Programs

For some patients, medical detox is the first step on the road to recovery. Whether you have an opioid addiction or an addiction to cocaine, it’s important to withdraw from substances under the supervision of a skilled treatment team. Not only will you have the support you need to complete the detox process, but you’ll also be monitored by professionals who can offer supportive medications or other treatments if your withdrawal symptoms are severe.

Virtue at the Pointe offers a wide variety of recovery services to help people recovering from addictions to alcohol, methamphetamine, cocaine, heroin and prescription drugs.

During individual therapy sessions, you’ll be able to talk with a trained therapist about your addiction history and explore how family dynamics, social issues and other circumstances have shaped your behavior. Your therapist will help you change harmful thought patterns so you can continue abstaining from substances even after you get home.

If the treatment team believes you’d benefit from medications, you may also have the opportunity to participate in medication-assisted treatment. Patients receiving medication-assisted treatment are given medications that have been approved to help with addictions to certain substances. For example, methadone may be given to patients in treatment for opioid addiction. One of the benefits of residential medication-assisted treatment is that you’ll be monitored by staff members who can adjust your medications if you experience any uncomfortable side effects.

Additional Addiction Treatment Programs

Our treatment program also includes group therapy and family therapy to help you address the underlying causes of your addiction and learn how to overcome challenges without getting drunk or high.

Attending group sessions can also help you learn how to accept criticism gracefully instead of getting upset and turning to substance use to cope with your feelings.

The negative effects of addiction aren’t confined to the person using alcohol or drugs, which is why addiction is often called a family disease. Substance use may cause arguments between spouses, make it difficult to be an effective parent or cause division within an entire family. Family therapy can help you address these issues and improve your communication skills. You’ll also be able to define your role in the family and set boundaries that can help you avoid relapse after you complete your treatment program.

Insurance Coverage for Substance Abuse Treatment

Virtue at the Pointe works with many health insurance plans to ensure patients can get the treatment they need.

If you’re not sure if your insurance will cover treatment at Virtue at the Pointe, we can verify your benefits and let you know how much coverage is available.

Even if your insurance doesn’t cover 100% of your stay, remember that residential rehab is an investment in your well-being. Quitting cold turkey can be dangerous, and it’s easy to relapse when you don’t have the support of experienced professionals and other people who understand what it’s like to live with an addiction. Although free outpatient programs are a good complement to residential rehab, the risk of relapse is much higher if you rely on these programs as your only source of treatment.
