Choose Life. Choose Hope.
Akron Treatment Services opened on Monday June 4, 2018 and will treat people in the Akron and Summit County-areas. According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC) deaths from substance use continue to rise in Ohio, which is attributed to fentanyl and other illicit substances. The opening of this new facility aims to combat the alarming rise in addiction and provide much-needed support to those struggling with substance use disorders. Similar initiatives are being launched across the state, including a new opioid treatment center in martinsville, which will further enhance access to care and resources for affected individuals. These efforts reflect a growing commitment to addressing the opioid crisis and improving public health outcomes.
However, while the deaths specifically in Summit County are on the decline, the proliferation of lethal substances continues unabated.
Akron Treatment Services provides opioid-use disorder treatment in Akron and area communities and accepts Medicaid. This State has been featured in the international news due to significant deaths from lethal opioids. Many individuals struggling with addiction find hope and recovery through specialized care programs designed to address their unique needs. As part of a growing network of support, the opioid treatment center in brilliant offers comprehensive services that include counseling, medication-assisted treatment, and ongoing support. This holistic approach not only targets substance dependence but also aims to improve overall well-being and reintegrate individuals back into their communities. In addition to the services provided in Akron, there are also Dayton treatment services for opioid disorders, which aim to support individuals struggling with addiction in that region. These facilities offer comprehensive care and resources to help patients on their path to recovery. The growing focus on treatment options is crucial as communities work to combat the ongoing opioid crisis. In response to the growing crisis, local organizations are enhancing their efforts to provide much-needed support for those struggling with addiction. The recent ‘youngstown treatment services launch‘ aims to broaden access to care and resources for residents in the surrounding areas. By addressing the root causes of opioid dependency, these initiatives hope to reduce the stigma associated with seeking help and ultimately save lives.

“I have worked in the field of addiction treatment for most of my career. Our community has been hit especially hard by the national crisis. We are glad to be able to offer the community a viable treatment option. I am confident that, together, we can positively impact the health of people in this community,” Megan Eaton, Program Director said. Megan emphasized the importance of adhering to evidence-based practices in addiction treatment, especially in light of recent findings from the cdc opioid guidelines misapplication report. This report highlights the negative consequences that misapplication of these guidelines can have on patients seeking help. “By ensuring our approach aligns with these guidelines, we can better serve those struggling with addiction and lead them toward recovery,” she added.
“We initially opened a residential treatment center in Columbus, Ohio in 2016. Since that time, through our involvement with key opinion leaders, we have determined the need for more treatment to serve other communities in Ohio. We have quickly gotten clients in all areas opened – demonstrating the need for our treatment,” Joe Pritchard, Chief Executive Officer, Pinnacle Treatment Centers, said. “By expanding our reach, we aim to create a comprehensive network of care that addresses the opioid crisis head-on. Recently, we launched Ohio’s first opioid treatment medication unit, which is pivotal in providing accessible and effective treatment options. This initiative reflects our commitment to meeting the growing demand for specialized support within the state. This growth is essential as we continue to address the challenges posed by addiction across the state. As a result, we are proud to announce that a new drug treatment clinic opens in Ohio, bringing vital resources and support closer to those in need. Our focus remains on delivering high-quality care that empowers individuals to reclaim their lives from substance use disorders. As we expand our services, we are also working closely with local healthcare providers to integrate our programs with existing resources. Our focus includes enhancing access to Medicaid opioid treatment programs in Ohio, ensuring that those most in need receive the care they deserve. Through these efforts, we aim to make significant strides in combatting the opioid epidemic and improving health outcomes for our communities. We recognize the importance of adapting our services to the unique needs of each community. As part of our expansion, we are excited to introduce new addiction treatment options in Hamilton, ensuring that more individuals have access to the care they deserve. This strategic move not only enhances our service offerings but also reinforces our dedication to fighting the addiction epidemic in Ohio.
