About First Choice Community Healthcare South Valley

First Choice Community Healthcare South Valley is part of a network of medical centers and offices. This facility is located in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The facility is actually a medical center with a lot of different departments and specialties, but one of those is their behavioral health department where they can help you detox from drugs and alcohol.

The detox or withdrawal management here uses medication assisted treatment or MAT. That means that for opioid use disorder they offer medications that can help your withdrawal by reducing your withdrawal symptoms and your cravings. This can be helpful if you have an addiction to opioids like fentanyl, heroin or prescription pain medications.

There are a couple things to note about the detox here. First of all, this is an outpatient facility, so your detox will be completed on an outpatient basis. Second, they can only offer MAT for opioid addiction, so if you have an addiction to other substances like alcohol, meth or cocaine, then they may recommend that you detox elsewhere and return for treatment with them.

Along with detox, this treatment center can help you work past your addiction using group therapy and individual therapy. They also have community health workers on staff to help you with community resources and social needs that impact your recovery. The center is not just about stopping your drug and alcohol use but helping you construct a life where you feel fulfilled and stable and aren’t in the same circumstances you were during active addiction.

A lot of clients have excellent feedback about this treatment center. They say that all the staff, from the providers to the reception and administrative staff, are kind and helpful. While some clients have reported long wait times for appointments, many clients say their appointments typically start on time.
