Franklin County addiction treatment 'deserts' highlighted by OSU research


Ohioans without opioid addiction treatment near home are less likely to maintain their sobriety, and Ohio State University researchers found these provider deserts throughout Franklin County.
An area is considered a desert if the distance from a person s home to a provider is a mile or more away, a two-minute drive by car or more than 30 minutes away on public transportation, according to a study published Wednesday in the medical journal PLOS ONE. Research has shown the likelihood of someone staying in treatment drops by up to 50% when a treatment provider is more than a mile away.

For him to step down to deputy chief is an egregious insult to our integrity, said the Bishop Donald Washington, senior pastor at Mount Hermon Missionary Baptist Church on the Northeast Side, during a press conference before faith leaders delivered the petition. He needs to go. He needs to go now because a leopard never changes its spots. ....
