About Cherry Health – Southside Health Center Suite 100

Medication assisted treatment is the use of medications, in combination with counseling and psychosocial therapies, to provide a whole-patient approach to the treatment of substance use disorders. At the Southside Health Center and Muskegon Recovery Center there is a primary focus on providing integrated care for persons addicted to opiates, such as heroin, prescription opiates such as Vicodin ®, etc. In this treatment program the medications help to stabilize brain activity which has been altered by the addiction to opiates, which enables the patient to engage in the therapies and other supportive services that assist in their recovery.
