"There is no detox center currently in Muskingum County," Parr said. "If a patient is withdrawing from alcohol or (benzodiazepines) we can admit them because it's a medical emergency. You can die from withdrawal of alcohol or benzos. You will get sick and hurt real bad when you detox from opioids but it won't kill you so it isn't a medical emergency." Families, workplaces, schools, health care, law enforcement, everyone is being impacted by the public health epidemic, according to Carrel.
