Alcohol Use and Abuse in Broward County, Florida James N. Hall1

1 Mr. Hall is affiliated with the United Way of Broward County Commission on Substance Abuse’s Center for the Study and Prevention of Substance Abuse at Nova Southeastern University.

ABSTRACT Alcohol dominates the number of drug abuse consequences in Broward County and throughout the nation. Measures and trends of alcohol abuse tend to be more stable over the years than patterns of other abused substances. Adult, White males are most frequently observed in alcohol related consequences. INTRODUCTION This report addresses alcohol use and abuse in Broward County, Florida during the first half of 2004. It includes data on prevalence of use, alcohol-related deaths, medical emergencies, addiction treatment admissions, and law enforcement arrests. Report Highlights Ø One in five of Broward high school students had 5 or more drinks of alcohol in a row at least

once during the last 30 days. Ø One in four of Broward high school students has ridden within the last 30 days with a driver

who has been drinking. Ø Nine percent of Broward high school students report having driven a car or motorcycle after

drinking during the past 30 days. Ø There were 324 alcohol-related deaths in Broward County during 2003 and 165 in the first half

of 2004. Ø Among those coming to Broward County emergency rooms for an alcohol-related problem in

2004, 21 percent were seeking detox.

Co-occurring Disorders of a Serious Mental Illness and Alcohol Use Disorder The report does not track dual diagnosis of alcohol addiction and other mental health disorders locally. However, a study based on the SAMHSA 2002 National Survey on Drug Use and Health addresses co-occurring serious mental illness and a substance use disorders. It identifies 4 million adults aged 18 or older with a serious mental illness who also have a co-occurring substance use disorder. These 4 million represent 23 percent of the 17.5 million adults with a serious mental illness and 20 percent of the 19.7 million adults with a substance use disorder. Among the 4 million with co-occurring disorders, 2,377,000 were dependent on or abused only alcohol, 893,000 were dependent on or abused only illicit drugs, and 779,000 were dependent on or abused both alcohol and illicit drugs.





Area Description Broward County is composed of Ft. Lauderdale plus 28 other municipalities, and an unincorporated area. The county covers 1,197 square miles, including 25 miles of coastline. As of 2003, the population was 1,698,425. The population is roughly 63 percent White non-Hispanic, 21 percent Black non-Hispanic, and 17 percent Hispanic. Broward County is the second most populated county in Florida and accounts for approximately 10 percent of Florida’s population. Broward was the top growth county in Florida in the 1990s, adding 367,000 more people. Data Sources This report describes current alcohol trends in Broward County, using the data sources summarized below: • Alcohol-related mortality data were provided by the Broward County Medical Examiner

Department for 2003 and the first half of 2004.

• Emergency Department (ED) data for the first half of 2004 are reported from two Broward County hospital emergency departments as part of the Federal Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN) conducted by the Office of Applied Studies (OAS), of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA). Cases from the second half of 2004 are from 5 Broward County hospital emergency departments. Future reports will include more Broward County hospitals as the DAWN system expands.

• Alcohol addiction treatment data for the first half of 2004 were provided by the Broward Addiction

Recovery Centers (BARC) of the Broward County Department of Human Services and Spectrum Programs, Inc.

• Alcohol-related crime data is provided by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement Uniform

Crime Reports county-level arrest data from 2000 through the first half of 2004. • Survey data on prevalence of alcohol use are from (1) the Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention’s (CDC&P) 2003 Youth Risk Behavior Survey and (2) the Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey 2002 and 2004 and (3) the National Institute on Drug Abuse’s (NIDA) 2004 Monitoring the Future Survey of students in grades 8–12 nationally and (4) the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration’s 2002 and 2003 National Survey on Drug Use and Health.



ALCOHOL ABUSE PATTERNS AND TRENDS Prevalence Prevalence of alcohol use and abuse is the measure of what proportion (or percentage) of a selected population consumes and what proportion experiences or causes negative consequences. Prevalence is most frequently measured by surveys. Prevalence of alcohol in Broward County is tracked by two surveys among youth. Two additional surveys tracking alcohol use among the general population are not Broward County specific but do provide rates of alcohol-related behavior among residences of the State of Florida and the nation. High School Students Youth alcohol prevalence rates are derived for high school students (grades 9-12) from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC&P) national Youth Behavior Risk Survey (YRBS). It is over-sampled in 18 metropolitan areas, including Broward County, to provide local prevalence rates for these communities. The survey has been conducted in odd-number years since 1993. The most current local results are from 2003. The 2005 results are anticipated in the summer of 2006. The Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey (FYS) has been conducted annually since 2000 for middle and high school students across the State of Florida. In even-numbered years, the survey has been over-sampled to provide prevalence rates for the counties of Florida. The most current state-level information is from 2004. The most current Broward County information is from 2002. The 2004 results for Broward County are anticipated by March of 2005. Exhibits 1-3 compare the findings of the two surveys of alcohol use among Broward County High School Students. YRBS is the CDC&P’s Youth Risk Behavior Survey and FYS is the Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey.

Sources: Center for Disease Control and Prevention Youth Risk behavior Survey 1993-2003 and Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey 2000 to 2002 The three indicators of (1) Lifetime prevalence, (2) Past 30-Day prevalence, and (3) Binge-drinking of 5 or more drinks in a row are included in both surveys of Broward High School Students. Both surveys validated one another with very similar findings for these three questions between 2000 and 2001. The findings may be generalized to report that approximately 70 percent of high school students in Broward County reported at least one lifetime experience of consuming alcohol, approximately 40 percent report used within the past 30 days of taking the survey, and 20 percent report binge drinking within the past 30 days. Comparison of findings for the 2003 Youth Risk Behavior Survey from Broward County with neighboring counties, the State of Florida, and national rates are provided in Exhibits 4 and 5. Broward County students report lower rates of alcohol lifetime, current, and binge drinking and drinking on school property as well as driving after dinking or riding with someone who has than national, Florida and Palm Beach students. The only question where Broward students report higher rates than the national average or Palm Beach students was in having had a drink of alcohol before the age of 13 years.

Middle School Students Prevalence rates of alcohol use for middle school students in Broward County are available from the 2000 and 2002 Florida Youth Substance Abuse Survey. The 2004 results for Broward County are anticipated by March of 2005. In 2002, 20.1 percent of Broward County middle school students reported current or use of alcohol within the past 30 days, a rate that is slightly higher than the statewide prevalence of 19.7 percent and just above the Broward rate of 19.8 percent in 2000. Lifetime use of alcohol was reported by 42.3 percent of Broward middle school students in 2002, up from 38.4 percent in 2000. Binge drinking rates (defined as having 5 or more drinks in a row) within the past two weeks declined from 8.9 percent of Broward middle school students in 2000 to 6.9 percent in 2002. General Population While no local rates of alcohol prevalence are available for adults in Broward County, estimates for residents of Florida are made by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration in its 2002 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). It reports that among Floridians aged 18 to 25 years, 60.32 percent were current (past 30-days) users of alcohol compared to 60.47 percent for the nation. Among those aged 26 years or older the NSDUH found that 54.97 percent of Floridians and 53.91 percent of national residents in that age group reported current use of alcohol. The similarity of these rates indicates the endemic rather than epidemic nature of alcohol abuse in the United States. Thus, there are not necessarily dramatic differences in the patterns of alcohol use and abuse across communities in the United States. The NSDUH reported that 39.28 percent of Floridians aged 18-25 years had 5 or more drinks in a row at least once in the past 30 days compared to 40.93 percent of national residents. Likewise, it found that 21.76 percent of Floridians aged 26 years or older had 5 or more drinks in a row at least once in the past 30 days compared to 21.44 percent of national residents. Alcohol-Related Consequences Deaths There were 324 alcohol-related deaths in Broward County in 2003. There have been 165 such deaths in the first six months of 2004. A review of the 2004 alcohol deaths from January through June is presented in exhibits 6-10. Males accounted for 75 percent of the 165 decedents and 83 percent were White, 14 percent were Black, and 1 percent were Asian. Two of the deaths involved infants, 3 were aged 18-20 years, 37 percent were aged 44 to 54 years of age followed by 22 percent aged 35 to 44 years. Other age distributions are shown in exhibit 8.

# of Alcohol Deaths

Source: Broward County Medical Examiner’s Department Exhibit 9 classifies the alcohol deaths from the first half of 2004 by manner of death and whether alcohol was considered the cause of death. Accidental death was the manner for 46 percent of the cases and alcohol was considered the cause of death for 12 percent of those cases. Suicide was attributed to 34 percent of the alcohol cases and it was the cause of death in 9 percent of those cases. Natural causes accounted for 14 percent of the alcohol deaths with 1 of those cases reporting alcohol as the cause of death. It was also detected in 6 homicide cases and was the cause of death in one of those. Four of the cases remain undetermined as to the manner of death. Exhibit 10 shows that cocaine was detected in 24 percent of the alcohol deaths, benzodiazepines were detected in 22 percent, and narcotic pain medications were reported in 14 percent of the deaths, while heroin was found in 4 percent. Two other alcohol death cases were listed as multiple drug overdoses.

Medical Emergencies The new Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN) recorded selected information on alcohol-related emergency department cases from 2 Broward hospitals in the first half of 2004. The network has expanded to 5 emergency departments in Broward County by the last quarter of 2004. Thus, the alcohol cases tracked by DAWN are not a total or estimate of all the cases in the County, but do provide a sample of such cases from which a profile of patients and problems may be reviewed. DAWN tracks alcohol cases for adults only when alcohol is reported in combination with other drugs of abuse. None-the-less, the category of alcohol-in-combination usually ranks slightly above cocaine as the highest number of drug-related hospital emergency department cases nationwide. DAWN also tracks alcohol-only ED cases for anyone under 21 years of age. Exhibits 11-13 reveal the demographics of the 1,749 patients who came into a Broward emergency room in 2004 for an alcohol–related case. Males accounted for 66 percent and Whites for 68 percent, while Blacks represented 23 percent of the ED cases, and Hispanics accounted for 9 percent. Teens below the age of 18 accounted for 29 percent of the 246 underage alcohol ED cases. Yet, those of legal drinking age, 21 years and older, represented 86 percent of the alcohol-related ED cases, with those aged 35-44 representing 32 percent of all the alcohol ED cases, the next largest group was those aged 45 to 54 years who accounted for 18 percent.

Among the 1,749 cases in 2004, 60 percent were charted as substance abuse cases and an additional 16 percent were listed as seeking detox. Overmedication, often in combination with prescription medication, was listed in 8 percent of the cases; another 8 percent were among those below the age of 21 years involving alcohol only. Suicide was the case type for 5 percent of the alcohol-related cases (exhibit 14). The 1,749 alcohol-related ED patients reported 2,412 chief complaints including 22 percent of the patients with psychiatric conditions, and 21 percent being intoxicated. Seeking detox was requested by 16 percent of the alcohol-related ED patients. Other complaints are enumerated in exhibit 15. Among alcohol-related emergency department patients, 30 percent were referred to detox or treatment, 28 percent were discharged to home, another 22 percent were admitted to detox or treatment, a psychiatric unit, or other inpatient care, and 4 percent were releases to the police or jail (exhibit 16).

Alcoholism Treatment Among the 4,057 patients admitted to the Broward Addiction Recovery Center (BARC) and Spectrum Programs in Broward County, 60 percent cited alcohol as either a primary, secondary, or tertiary drug of abuse. Of theses 2,448 alcohol mentions, 61 percent were as the primary substance, 32 percent listed alcohol as their secondary drug, and 7 percent of the alcohol mentions were as the tertiary drug of abuse (exhibit 17). Those aged 40-49 years accounted for 41 percent of all primary alcohol treatment admissions, 32 percent of the secondary cases, and 24 percent of the tertiary mentions. Youth were most likely to cite alcohol as a secondary drug of abuse (exhibit 18). Whites accounted for 60 percent of all the alcohol treatment mentions and 68 percent of the primary alcohol cases. Blacks accounted for 28 percent of all the alcohol treatment cases. Hispanics accounted for 10 percent of the cases (exhibit 19). Information on the gender of BARC treatment clients was not available. Among the 310 alcohol treatment cases in the Spectrum program, 71 percent were males (exhibit 20). Exhibit 17

DUI arrests totaled 5,104 in 2000 and declined to 4,530 in 2001 and to 4,283 in 2002 before rising to 4,617 in 2003. There were 2,533 DUI arrests in the first 6 months of 2004. Liquor law violation arrests totaled 3,578 in 2000 and remain fairly stable with 3,242 arrests in 2001, 3,630 in 2002 and 3,574 in 2003. During the first half of 2004, there were 1,611 liquor law violation arrests in Broward County. The gender and age of DUI and liquor law violation arrests are available on a statewide basis but not at the county level. Exhibits 22 and 23 show the similar patterns in the gender and age groups of alcohol-related arrestees from 2000 through the first half of 2004. Both DUI and liquor law violations are dominated by adult males. Likewise, among juveniles most arrestees for alcohol violations are males. Exhibit 24 on the last page of this report identifies the number of DUI arrests by the various police departments in Broward County in the first half of 2004. The Broward Sheriff Office made 25 percent of these arrests.
