Rehabs in North Carolina - Article |
The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH)
generates state-level estimates for 23 measures
of substance use and mental health problems for
four age groups: the entire state population over
age 12 (12+); individuals age 12 to 17; individuals
age 18 to 25; and individuals age 26 and older (26+).
Since State estimates of substance use and
abuse were first generated using the combined
2002–2003 NSDUHs and continuing until the
most recent State estimates based on the combined
2005– 2006 surveys, rates in Kentucky have
been among the lowest in the country on the following
measures:

Abuse and Dependency in North
Carolina
Questions in NSDUH are used to classify persons
as being dependent on or abusing specific
substances based on criteria specified
in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental
Disorders, 4th Edition (DSM-IV) (American Psychiatric
Association, 1994).
On the global measure of any past year abuse of
or dependence on illicit drugs or alcohol,
rates in North Carolina have generally
been below the national rates. When alcohol and
illicit drugs are considered separately, however,
some differences can be seen in that alcohol dependence
rates are lower than the national rates and drug
dependence rates are at or above the national rates.

Substance Abuse Treatment
Facilities in North Carolina
According to the 2006 National Survey of Substance
Abuse Treatment Services (N SSATS),3 North Carolina
had a total of 362 treatment facilities. Private
non-profit and private for-profit organizations
each had 147 facilities. One facility was owned/operated
by a tribal government. The number of treatment
facilities in North Carolina has increased by more
than 80 since 2002. The change is primarily accounted
for by increases in both private for-profit and
private non-profit facilities (60 and 61 facilities
respectively) and a decrease in those facilities
owned or operated by Federal, State, or local government(s).
Although facilities may offer more than one modality
of care, the majority of facilities in 2006 (300
of 362) offered some form of outpatient treatment.
Sixty additional facilities offered some form of
residential care, and 34 facilities offered an opioid
treatment program. In addition, 126 physicians and
48 treatment programs are certified to provide buprenorphine
care.
In 2006, 42 percent of all facilities (153) received
some form of Federal, State, county or local government
funds, and 143 facilities (40%) had agreements or
contracts with managed care organizations for the
provision of substance abuse treatment services.
Addiction Treatment in North Carolina
State treatment data for substance use disorders
are derived from two primary sources—an annual
one-day census in N-SSATS and annual treatment admissions
from the Treatment Episode Data Set (TEDS). In the
2006 N-SSATS survey, North Carolina showed a one-day
total of 25,845 clients in treatment, the majority
of whom (23,411 or 90%) were in outpatient treatment.
Of the total number of clients in treatment on this
date, 1,682 (6%) were under the age of 18.
Across the last 15 years, there has been a steady
decline in the number of admissions mentioning alcohol
and concomitant increases in the mentions of cocaine
and opiates other than heroin.
Across the years for which TEDS data are available,
North Carolina has seen a substantial shift in the
constellation of problems present at treatment admission.
Alcohol-only admissions have declined from over
40 percent of all admissions in 1992 to less than
20 percent in 2006. Concomitantly, drug-only admissions
have increased from 15 percent in 1992 to 35 percent
in 2005.
Unmet Need for Addiction Treatment
in North Carolina
NSDUH defines unmet addiction treatment
need as an individual who meets the criteria
for abuse of or dependence on illicit drugs or alcohol
according to the DSM-IV, but who has not received
specialty treatment for that problem in the past
year.
Unmet need for alcohol treatment in North Carolina
has generally been below the national rates and
in 2005-2006 was among the lowest in the country
for all age groups except those 26 and older.
Rates of unmet need for drug treatment, however,
have been more variable and in 2005 2006 were among
the highest in the country for those age 26 and
older.
