ADMISSIONS FROM VARIOUS RESIDENTIAL AND OUTPATIENT CENTERS NATIONWIDE

For 2007, a total of 4,278 cases were admitted in 55 residential and 3 out-patient centers nationwide. Of this, 3,456 clients were admitted in the treatment facilities while 822 were from outpatient centers. In a residential treatment facility, patients are required to stay for a minimum of six months to a maximum of one year, either on a voluntary or compulsory confinement basis. In an out-patient facility, dependents are diagnosed for their drug-taking behavior and required to report for treatment on a regular basis for a certain period of time.

As compared to 2006, a 9.04 percent decrease rate was observed in admission of clients. The decrease in admission may be brought about by the closure of some centers due to failure to comply with requirements or to apply for accreditation to the  DOH. Another reason for the decrease may be attributed to the relentless efforts on the demand and supply reduction campaign of the government

Of those (3,456) in the residential facilities, 2,839 or 82.14 percent were new admissions while 617 or 17.85 percent were relapsed or readmitted cases.
