Johnson Family Story
Tony Johnson is a 23-year-old man who was admitted to the hospital cardiac ICU through the
emergency department in acute cardiac distress from an accidental methamphetamine overdose.
He arrived at the emergency department by ambulance from his drug-free friend Doug’s single-

room occupancy hotel room. Tony is currently homeless. He had been sleeping on his drug
dealer’s couch for a week until he was arrested for assault. Since his arrest a few days ago, he
has been sleeping on Doug’s floor.
Tony has been in and out of substance abuse treatment programs since he was 17 years
old. He was diagnosed with bipolar disorder at the first treatment program he attended. His father
and stepmother convinced him to enter that program just before his 18th birthday and paid for
the expensive 3-month program. As with all of the programs he has attended, he left soon after
admission to the program.
During a previous emergency room admission, Tony got angry at his family, tore off his
electrocardiogram leads and oxygen mask, and left the hospital against medical advice. During
the present hospitalization, Tony called his father from the emergency department to ask him to
come and help get him admitted to another treatment facility. Tony has agreed to see his sister
and stepmother, but not his stepfather or stepsiblings. He also refuses to see his mother because
he says she “is the cause of all my problems.” His mother and father separated, and later
divorced, when Tony was 10 years old and his younger sister was about 1 year old. He and his
mother fought constantly when he was a child, and she was overprotective of him. Tony was an
obedient child who then began using alcohol and drugs, and stealing from family members
beginning in his early teens.
Tony’s father has maintained Tony on his small business’s health insurance policy. Tony
is eligible for short-term residential treatment if he can prove to the director of the program that
he intends to cooperate this time. His father is again willing to pay for longer term drug and
psychiatric treatment if Tony proves that he is intent on cooperating with his treatment plan.

Tony stopped taking his mood-stabilizing medications approximately 2 weeks ago, when
his most recent binge use of methamphetamine started. Currently, the doctors are reluctant to
prescribe his mood-stabilizing medications while the methamphetamine is still affecting his
major systems.
