Hospitalization and overdose death due to heroin alone is relatively low in Vilas County, while opioid-related hospitalization and overdose rates are very high. Methamphetamine abuse is also a significant problem in the county.

The Vilas County District Attorney reports that the 50 percent increase in felony cases between 2015 and 2017 is mainly due to drugs.

They were discovered through a database that tracks the purchase of pseudoephedrine, an ingredient in cold medicine used to make methamphetamine.

Traveling For Treatment

Though many people seek a drug rehab center that is close to home, there are advantages to traveling for treatment. First, it allows a person to discover more options and compare multiple programs before determining which is the best fit for them. Second, it removes someone from the environment in which they started abusing drugs or alcohol in the first place. This change is vital to recovery for many individuals.
