During your intake, you will undergo an assessment. At that time, their staff will ask questions in regards to your current concerns, substance use history and medical history. All this information will help their staff create a treatment plan that is personalized to your needs. This ensures that all your treatment needs will be met for a successful long term recovery.
Your intake appointment will take between two and four hours. One of the center’s physicians will conduct a routine physical exam and drug screening. The exam will help them and you get a picture of your physical health.
Before you begin treatment, you must be substance free and in a withdrawal state for 24-48 hours. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) will be integrated with counseling services. The four FDA approved medications they prescribed are methadone, Suboxone, naltrexone and buprenorphine. The purpose of these medications is to help ease your withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings so that you may be able to focus on your recovery journey.
In individual counseling, you’ll reflect on how addiction has impacted your life. You’ll also learn to make changes that are healthy to support your recovery. In group counseling, you’ll develop relapse prevention strategies and practice health communication skills. You’ll also see that you are not alone on this journey, as you connect and learn from your peers’ experiences.
