Substance Abuse In Shrewsbury & York County

  • Drug overdoses kill more York County residents each year than traffic accidents, according to the York County government.
  • A new report from the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council found that the annual increase in opioid-related hospitalizations in York County was more than three times the statewide average for 2016-17.
  • The percentage of overdose-related hospitalizations increased 39.4 percent between 2016 and 2017, compared to a state average of 12.7 percent.

Traveling For The Best Program

Although both Shrewsbury and York have several substance abuse treatment programs, residents struggling with addiction may want to check out programs in larger cities, like Philadelphia, and even out-of-state programs to ensure the most effective and personalized treatment.
