Substance Use
Get the Help You Need
Whether your struggle involves opioids, alcohol, or other substances, managing
substance use disorder is tough — especially by yourself. Community
Memorial Healthcare understands. That’s why we developed a program
in collaboration with
Conejo Health to help and support people in our community with substance use disorder (SUD).
-
Harm Reduction Kits — Patients at
Community Memorial Health Centers are able to anonymously take home these kits which include: Fentanyl test
strips, Naloxone, educational information and resources. Harm reduction
supplies can also be requested
online.
-
Overdose Training Course — this 1.5 hour program, offered by Conejo Health, provides access
to life-saving Naloxone training techniques.

Substance Use Navigators — Our
Substance Use Navigators from Conejo Health serve as the gateway to our SUD program. In the majority
of cases, people first meet a Substance Use Navigator in the Emergency
Department while receiving treatment. However, you don’t have to
wait for an emergency situation to get the help you need. If you have
a regular doctor, they can refer you to our program. Our Navigators approach
people who use drugs with respect, compassion, and understanding.
