We go beyond basic drug and alcohol rehab to treat underlying conditions like withdrawal symptoms, mental and behavioral health issues. The most successful path to recovery combines medical detox with inpatient programs and intensive outpatient treatment. When a patient graduates from our recovery program at Landmark Recovery, we continue to provide them with the full support of our alumni network. Indianapolis is one of the major cities where Landmark can provide you with local support and keep you committed to recovery.

Some people delay addiction treatment because they believe it’s too expensive. But the costs associated with an untreated addiction far outweigh the cost of a recovery center. The cost of drugs and alcohol used by someone with an addiction typically surpass the price of treatment for substance abuse. There are also emotional and physical costs, including health problems, broken relationships and poor self-image that often accompany an addiction. While detox and rehab are investments, they both pay off for our patients. You’ll find health and a better life in recovery.

Alcohol is the most abused and readily available substance in Indiana. More than half of all Hoosiers over the age of 12 report current alcohol use and nearly 1 in 4 engaged in binge drinking in the last month. In 2018 there were 7,213 alcohol-related collisions in Indiana, including 128 fatal crashes that involved alcohol. Around 1 in 20 Hoosiers suffer from alcoholism, according to recent survey results from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration. Alcoholism is even more common among young adults, as 1 in 10 Indiana residents aged 18-25 years meet the criteria for diagnosis of an alcohol use disorder.
Marijuana is the most used illegal drug in Indiana. According to recent findings from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, it is estimated that 1 in 10 Indiana residents (aged 12 and over) are current marijuana users, and nearly 1 in 6 report using marijuana in the past year. Marijuana use is also a major issue facing Indiana teenagers. The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System reports that 1 in 6 Indiana high school students (grades 9-12) have used marijuana in the past month.
Heroin abuse has led to serious consequences for Indiana residents. In 2019, nearly 500 inpatient hospitalizations were related to heroin use, and over 3,500 emergency department admissions were a result of heroin use. The rate of drug-related fatalities in Indiana exceeds the national average, and during 2018 there were 311 overdose deaths that involved heroin. Due to the common practice of needle-sharing among heroin users, the use of heroin is also a significant risk factor for the spread of infectious diseases like human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Of the new HIV diagnoses made in Indiana during 2017, 1 in 10 new diagnoses in males and 1 in 6 new diagnoses in females were attributed to injection drug use.
Indiana is among the states hardest hit by the current opioid epidemic. Since 2003, the cumulative economic damages of opioid addiction have cost the state more than $43 billion. Unfortunately, the true cost of opioid addiction in Indiana cannot be measured in dollars. In 2018, there were 1,104 drug overdose deaths in Indiana involving opioids. This included 713 deaths that involved synthetic opioids (such as fentanyl), 370 prescription opioid-involved deaths, and 311 overdose deaths related to heroin use. Indiana has also seen a dramatic increase in the number of non-fatal emergency department visits related to opioid overdose, from 1,856 in 2011 to 5,825 in 2018.
Many Indiana residents are suffering from the effects of cocaine abuse. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 1 in 47 Hoosiers have used cocaine within the past year. Cocaine use is highest among young adults, aged 18 to 25, with 1 in 15 reporting cocaine use in the past year. Around 1 in 35 Indiana college students currently use cocaine, and more than 2 in 3 college students who use cocaine first did so after starting in college. Unfortunately, cocaine abuse is not confined to the adult population of the state. The use of cocaine is also alarmingly high among Indiana teenagers—at least 1 in 25 high school students (grades 9-12) in Indiana report taking cocaine at least once in their life.
In 2019, Indiana law enforcement made 13,920 arrests for meth-related charges (accounting for 25% of all drug arrests), seized 90 clandestine meth labs, made 45 meth lab arrests, and rescued 6 children from meth lab homes located within the state. Methamphetamine use was reported in nearly a quarter of all treatment center admissions, a significantly higher rate when compared to the national average of 17%.

Learn more about Medical DetoxFor many individuals, detox represents the most difficult stage of the recovery journey. This is because as addictive substances are being flushed out of the body, the brain typically goes into withdrawal as it adjusts to normal functioning without the presence of drugs or alcohol.
