By Ashley Welch - December 12, 2016 / 11:10 AM / CBS News
“But there was really no adequate information out there that gave us a profile of how many people are taking psychiatric drugs.”

Housing and Over-Medication – Out-of-scope
“The report, published today in JAMA Internal Medicine, also found that over 80 percent of those taking these medications reported long-term use, which experts say is concerning since some of the drugs are recommended for shorter use and carry a number of serious risks.  Study author Thomas J. Moore, of the nonprofit Institute for Safe Medication Practices, in Alexandria, Virginia, specializes in drug safety research, including the risks of prescription drugs and how they are measured and managed through policies.”

“This report presents information on select indicators from the Orange County Older Adult Dashboard (http://www.ochealthiertogether.org/OlderAdultDashboard). The Dashboard also presents source information for the data, breakout analyses on indicators (when available), and additional indicators not included in this report.”

Orange County’s Older Adult Population
“Orange County is home to over 3.1 million people and is the sixth most populous county in the nation. In 2016, 13.5% of the county’s population is 65 and older. This population is projected to nearly double by 2040, when almost one in four residents will be 65 or older. In addition to this growth, the older adult population is becoming more racially and ethnically diverse. Currently, non-Hispanic whites comprise the majority of the older adult population at 62.5%; by 2040, there will be no majority group, and the projected older adult population will be comprised of 43.1% non-Hispanic whites, 29.5% Hispanics, 24.0% Asians, and 1.4% African Americans.”

Promoting Health in General – MSG’s Chronic Healing
A homeless or seriously health impaired person may get to go through a series of placements.  For example a substance dependent person may get to go into residential treatment before being able to benefit from a less restrictive setting such as Permanent Supportive Housing (PSH).  Some homeless and disadvantaged persons may never be able to live alone.  Every case will be slightly different.  One of the constants in the HOUSING formula eventually will become the “Beds” themselves.  The room is a different story altogether due to roommate flux.  About a: House, room, bed overall health might better be promoted and delivered.  An element in MSG’s SleepAbility Paradigm is: Restful, rejuvenating sleep is required for healing.  The majority of disadvantaged and impoverished persons that “Buster” observes (and documents) are very ill and in need of chronic healing to counter chronic distress.

Substantial Mortality Rate
A Mortality Rate (MR) of 4.0 percent associated with homelessness is in par with that of Alzheimer’s Disease (ALZ).  Alzheimer's disease is often listed as the number 5 or 6 leading cause of DEATH in the United States.  It would be interesting to compare spending about control efforts between the two: Homelessness and ALZ.

Homeless Associated DEATH
Even if the homeless person succumbed to Hypo or Hyperthermia one wouldn’t declare homelessness a cause of DEATH.  What homeless can do is fatigue the individual making them more vulnerable to catastrophic losses such a contracting and or aggravating severe diseases such as opiate over-use.  Homelessness can throw the individuals composure enough that they have a greater chance of accidental DEATH.  Amongst other things homelessness can impair the consumer’s judgment in that they bring down law enforcement leading to a higher chance of ending up in jail.  Homeless and other impoverished peoples need help discovering and banking protective factors such as a “Great Fitting Bed” (GFB).  Finally, at the core of their individualized GFBs are that it is highly “SleepAble”.

Drug Addiction & Treatment Statistics for Orange County California (CA)

Retain Original Text Method (ROTM)
“According to The National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 27.1 million individuals in the United States abused prescription pills or had taken illicit substances in 2015.  This tendency has led to a significant increase in overdose deaths, with an estimated 47,055 drug-related deaths being reported by the Center for Behavioral Health Statistics and Quality in 2014.  For roughly 60% of them, the cause was opioids (heroin and prescription drugs.).  The data gathered in Orange County shows similar trends to nationwide substance abuse statistics, with the Orange County Health Care Agency reporting an increase in drug-related overdose deaths (of 88% between 2000 and 2017).  While the two trends are comparable, the OCHCA notes that some notable differences and risk factors have been identified for the OC residents.”

On Sliding Scales and Insurance
During the 1990s the consumers and consumer families more or less paid out-of-pocket for SUD/COD Residential Treatment.  Services provided were a “Bed” in a shared room, transportation to program elements such as 12-Step Meetings, intensive group counseling sessions, and typical facilities about the house.  Food and medications were managed by the client (consumer) themselves.  Examining the webpages of the programs in the table above many more modalities and services are provided.  We here at MSG believe it is fine to charge $8,000 per month if your program concept has been rigorously proven.  One of the reasons these and other SUD/COD program will charge this amount is that insurance in various forms pick up a substantial share.  Back in the 1990s we witnessed more than five (5) young people die while in or immediately after SUD treatment.  The program that was associated with them around their DEATHs never took responsibility or honored them in anyway.  These programs have the choice to slide the fees as necessary as long as they make a profit.  Finally, the amount they are permitted to charge might best be adjusted downward using their failure rate figures.

Orange County
“The data gathered in Orange County shows similar trends to nationwide substance abuse statistics, with the Orange County Health Care Agency reporting an increase in drug-related overdose deaths (of 88% between 2000 and 2017). While the two trends are comparable, the OCHCA notes that some notable differences and risk factors have been identified for the OC residents.”

“The OCHCA reported that, as a general trend, treatment in an outpatient or long-term residential program has a positive effect on a patient’s quality of life. For instance, 53% of patients stopped using their primary drugs after treatment. Patients’ legal status also showed significant improvement, with 65% fewer arrests before discharge, 74% fewer jail sentences, 78% fewer prison sentences. Moreover, the behavioral therapy also had a positive effect on patients’ employment status as 107% more adults were employed after discharge.”

Summary
Agonizing in that during 2019 while we researched and wrote this study quite a few people in need of a highly effective housing (GreatBed) fix Died Too Young (DTY).  We here at Mentalation Solutions Group (MSG) are confident that our HOUSING Help Line (HHL) idea and the satellite projects for supporting a HHL will yield highly favorable results.  We predict hard goings in the beginning such as those we faced writing and publishing this report.  Time spent far exceeded immediate rewards.
