The DASIS Report: Facilities
Offering Hospital Inpatient Care
Highlights
- "Hospital
Inpatient" refers to the level of medical supervision of treatment
at the facility, not just the facility setting. Twelve percent
of the facilities offering this high level of medical supervision of
treatment were in non-hospital facilities.
- Of
the 13,428 facilities responding to SAMHSA's 2000 National Survey of
Substance Abuse Treatment Services (N-SSATS) annual survey, 9 percent
offered hospital inpatient care.
- The
primary focus of facilities offering hospital inpatient care was substance
abuse for 33 percent of the facilities, both substance abuse and mental
for 31 percent, general health care for 18 percent, mental health for
16 percent and "other" for 2 percent.
- At
least 90 percent of the facilities providing hospital inpatient care
for substance abuse treatment also provided the following services:
comprehensive substance abuse assessment, individual therapy, group
therapy, drug/alcohol urine screening, discharge planning, and referral
to other transitional services. About 74 percent of the hospital
inpatient facilities provided programs for persons with co-occurring
disorders (substance abuse and mental illness).
