Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT)
About
The medical staffs are licensed and trained in addictions. They will carefully monitor each patient. Methadone will be used to treat opiate addiction. This will support long-term recovery and reduce sickness.
How to Apply:
After calling the Intake Coordinator, a brief interview will be conducted to seek MAT for opioid addiction. You are scheduled for an appointment and informed about the admission process, which requires photo identification and proof of insurance, if applicable. The admission process takes around 1.5 hours, discussing medical history and current medical conditions, and requesting written permissions as needed. Methadone treatment starts the same day if the client is clear-headed, but if intoxicated, you will not be able to give informed consent for treatment.Peer Recovery Services
