		<description><![CDATA[Cecil County&#8217;s Drug Court program is getting about a third of its participants off drugs and working to turn their lives around, but the culture of drugs in the county and plea bargains by prosecutors are an uphill struggle, Circuit Court Judge Keith Baynes told the County Council on Tuesday. Baynes, who serves as the administrative judge for the local Circuit Court as well as presiding over the Drug Court, said there are now 117 participants in the program which seeks to get people convicted of drug-related crimes into treatment for their addiction. The program requires drug-testing of defendants three or four times a week, intensive counseling, and obtaining a GED if they do not have a high school diploma, with a carrot-and-stick approach. If participants do not comply with the rules, they will be sent to prison to serve potentially lengthy sentences. Baynes said the program has a 32 percent graduation rate and is seeking an additional case manager to help cope with the increased numbers of participants in the program, which also helps arrange in-patient detox for those who need such services. The judge noted there are no local facilities providing those services and there has been an [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Union Hospital is considering creation of a non-profit entity in Cecil County to operate an 8 to 12-bed short-term drug detoxification program outside a hospital setting and may ask the county government to subsidize the operation, a hospital official told county leaders on Tuesday. At the same time, the hospital has already created a separate limited liability company in partnership with the Upper Chesapeake Health system in Harford County aimed at creating another operation that would address both drug abuse and mental health problems, since the region lacks adequate mental health professional care. The proposals were outlined in broad terms by Dave Gipson, Union Hospital’s Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, during a meeting of the county’s Board of Health—which consists of the county executive, the County Council, and the county health officer. County Council members have talked about Union’s plans previously although the hospital had insisted the proposals were still too preliminary to discuss in any detail. [SEE previous CECIL TIMES report here: https://ceciltimes.com/2014/12/union-hospital-considers-short-term-drug-abuser-detox-program-cecil-county-councilors-urge-support/ ] Gipson’s presentation was still short on specifics and he said a firmer concept for a Cecil County operation would likely not be developed until June.
