Looking for a Rancho Santa Margarita Rehab?

According to the OC Health Care Agency, Rancho Santa Margarita sees about 25 opioid overdoses a year. Their study was done from the years 2010 to 2015, and numbers rose every year. Sadly, it seems the safe and prosperous community is becoming victim to the Orange County opioid plague.

Because of its small village environment, Rancho Santa Margarita doesn’t have as many residential treatment programs for substance abuse addiction. Those living within the town’s borders seeking drug and alcohol treatment are left to find a rehab facility in neighboring cities.
