Drug Rehab on Long Island Near Long Beach

Long Beach sits on a barrier island with only three ways off—creating a close-knit community where everyone knows everyone. That intimacy can make seeking addiction treatment feel impossible without running into neighbors, coworkers, or friends. The island has just one local outpatient treatment center, and many residents prefer the privacy that comes with traveling off-island for care. Nassau County data shows overdose remains the leading cause of death for residents ages 18-35, with 77% of deaths involving fentanyl. Long Beach city workers—police, fire, lifeguards—along with teachers and Mount Sinai South Nassau healthcare staff often need confidential treatment options that won't intersect with their professional lives. For Long Beach residents seeking outpatient addiction treatment, Integrity Treatment Partners is just 15 minutes away in Baldwin, offering Joint Commission accredited addiction counseling and IOP programs.

Why Long Beach Residents Choose Us

Long Beach residents choose us because traveling off-island provides essential separation from the "fishbowl" atmosphere of barrier island life. City workers—police officers, firefighters, and lifeguards—prefer addiction counseling outside their patrol and service areas. Teachers and school staff from Long Beach's 7 schools benefit from care in a different district. Healthcare workers at Mount Sinai South Nassau facilities appreciate the distance from their workplace. With an average Long Beach commute of 41.7 minutes, residents are already accustomed to travel—the 15-minute drive to Baldwin fits existing patterns. And during summer, when the boardwalk party atmosphere can be triggering, having treatment off-island provides respite from seasonal challenges.

Addiction Crisis in Nassau County

Long Beach sits on a barrier island with only three exit points, creating unique challenges for residents seeking addiction treatment—privacy is difficult in a close-knit community where everyone knows everyone. In 2023, more than 650 Long Islanders died of drug overdoses (Family & Children's Association), with a 77% increase in overdose deaths between 2013-2017 driven by fentanyl. Nassau County fatal overdoses declined 22% in 2024 (179 deaths vs 230 the prior year, CDC preliminary data via Newsday), but 77% of deaths still involve opioids. Overdose remains the leading cause of death for Nassau residents ages 18-35. Long Beach Aware (founded 2000, state-funded since 2013) provides prevention education at 20 W Park Ave (516-208-6205). Long Island Reach (founded 1970) offers outpatient chemical dependency treatment at 2-12 West Park Ave (516-889-2332). The Oceanside SAFE Coalition hosts annual Overdose Awareness Day events in the Long Beach area—at their August 2025 event, two Long Beach nurses shared their losses: Lori Martin (son Derrick, 36, died after relapse) and Gina McCarthy (daughter Kyla, 35). Holly Prussman, a 2008 Long Beach High School graduate and varsity swimmer, died of a heroin overdose in January 2010 at age 19 after checking out of rehab (LI Herald, March 2010). The City of Long Beach hosts Narcan training with Mount Sinai South Nassau, and the Big Red Med Box at Long Beach Police Department (1 W. Chester Street) accepts unused medications 24/7. Nassau County began testing wastewater for 26 drugs in December 2024 and added fentanyl test strips to overdose prevention kits.
