Alcoholism and drug addiction are the only diseases that have serious social consequences, which patients themselves do not want to recognize. This is due to painful personality changes, therefore, the state narcological care is withdrawn from the outpatient care and is carried out through the narcological dispensary. Samara is no exception. On the territory of the region, the SOND GBUZ was created, with the departments of which we will meet in the article.
The structure of the regional dispensary
There is an opinion that free help cannot be of high quality. This is not true. It is in the system of state medicine that disease statistics are kept, the best personnel are collected and all modern technologies for dealing with addictions are used. Who is the head of the drug treatment clinic? Samara can be proud of A.V. Shcherban, who is the main narcologist since 2014. More than 10 years before his appointment, he worked as the head of a similar institution in the city of Novokuybyshevsk, Ph.D. In addition to Samara and Novokuybyshevsk, dispensaries are available in Tolyatti, Syzran and Chapaevsk, and drug treatment rooms at central hospitals are open in other areas.
Assistance to children and adolescents who directly contact the address: ul. Ulyanovskaya, 68, phone: 8 (846) 3332817. For adult patients, outpatient care is provided in two places: Partizanskaya, 130 (main building) and Stavropolskaya, 92. A 24-hour examination for alcohol and drug intoxication is carried out in the building on ul. Victory, 90. The only hospital is located in the green zone: South Highway, 18.
Help with compulsory medical insurance
What should a patient do to go to a drug treatment clinic for free? Partizanskaya (Samara) is an outpatient department from which you must start, t. (846) 2680810. Help with compulsory medical insurance will be provided with a passport and policy. At the same time, a citizen must be aware: in the event of drug addiction or alcoholism, he will be registered with a specialist, which is important for a medical examination for a driver’s license or for employment in certain structures. Therefore, many prefer to contact anonymously.
During the initial examination, the doctor determines the course of drug therapy, group or individual methods of treatment support, and the necessary rehabilitation course. With advanced forms of the disease, hospitalization is recommended for a period of 2 weeks, while in a hospital, you can go through the subsequent course of rehabilitation therapy. Residents of remote areas of the city also turn to the drug treatment clinic. Samara, Stavropol, 92 - this is the address of the outpatient clinic for patients of the Industrial, Soviet and Kirov regions, t. (846) 9512207.
SOND Hospital
A hospital with a capacity of 220 beds, established in 1984 on the basis of the Psychoneurological Hospital No. 3, is located on the outskirts of the city. It is easily accessible from the Aurora bus station by regular buses and fixed-route taxis. Stop - "Agricultural Fair". In addition to planned hospitalization, the hospital provides emergency care for alcohol and drug intoxication, as well as anonymous treatment, which can be made by phone: 8 (846) 2660539.
What other possibilities does a narcological dispensary have? Samara uses the most modern methods of physical ("Torpedo", "Esperal", plasmapheresis, ozone therapy) and psychological (coding, hypnosis) effects on the patient, so they treat complex forms of alcoholism in the hospital, carry out social and medical rehabilitation therapy. In addition to the medical and rehabilitation department, there are special rooms for anonymous patients.
For successful rehabilitation, doctors support independent communities of the Academy of Sciences (anonymous drug addicts) and AA (anonymous alcoholics). There are 21 groups in the region, including 3 for co-dependent.
Expertise
The intoxication examination branch is located near the Bezymyanka metro station, which is very convenient for citizens. Contact phone: 8 (846) 9957947. GBOND “SOND” has a modern chemical-toxicological laboratory using advanced research methods. In order to avoid falsification of the examination, the material (urine) is handed over in the presence of medical staff, and part of it is stored frozen for two months. This is necessary if the citizen disagrees with the results of the examination.
What else guarantees the correctness of the study drug addiction clinic? Samara, Pobedy 90 - this is the department where the material is taken, but the final conclusions are not made if the test strip shows a positive result for the presence of alcohol or drugs in the blood. The sample is sent to the laboratory, which within 10 days gives a final conclusion. The discrepancy with the test strips can be up to 20%.
Statistics
The drug service often has negative reviews from the relatives of patients, because they place too high expectations on it. The main problem is the inability to cure a person who does not want to receive the help of a doctor. How to determine if a narcological clinic works well or poorly? Samara in 2012 reported on 45 thousand patients registered in the dispensary. Today, their number has dropped to 24 thousand. The decrease in the number of addicts is associated with a whole range of measures, including the quality of the work of SOND.
