Opioid Treatment Admission Rate

County: Warren
Measurement Period: 2022
This indicator shows the rate of opioid-related admissions to any treatment facilities per 100,000 population. Rates are calculated based on patients’ county of residence, not the county where treatment was received.

Why is this important?

Opioids are natural or synthetic chemicals that bind to receptors in your brain or body. Common opioids include heroin and prescription drugs such as oxycodone, hydrocodone, and fentanyl. Opioid abuse is a serious public health issue, but preventive actions, treatment for addiction, and proper response to overdoses can help.

The majority of drug overdose deaths involve an opioid, and at least half of all opioid overdose deaths involve a prescription opioid. Since 1999, the rate of overdose deaths involving opioids (including prescription opioid pain relievers and heroin) nearly quadrupled. We now know that overdoses from prescription opioid pain relievers are a driving factor in the increase in opioid overdose deaths. (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention)
