About Fulton Friendship House
Fulton Friendship House in Gloversville, New York, offers inpatient detoxification and substance use disorder treatment and outpatient aftercare for adult men.
Inpatient Detox Services
Men who face addiction and need inpatient detoxification can find the help they need at Fulton Friendship House. The use of medically assisted detox is especially important for people who have alcohol, opioid, benzodiazepine and certain stimulant addiction. Their professional staff are there to monitor for complications and administer medications that help curb craving and decrease withdrawal symptoms. In addition, there are addiction specialists available to provide support through individual and group counseling sessions that help you get started on the path to long term recovery.
Residential Treatment and Aftercare Support
The inpatient or residential treatment program at Fulton Friendship House provides comprehensive addiction recovery care. Residential treatment provides a safe and secure environment free of the outside triggers that can make the earliest days of recovery difficult. Men find peer to peer support during group therapy sessions and receive one on one counseling with their addiction counselors that address the issues that contribute to their addiction. Fulton Friendship House encourages family involvement to enhance the external support systems that are an important component of recovery.
Men who have completed a residential treatment program but need continued support can utilize their transitional housing or halfway house. These residential programs help to bridge the gap between treatment and returning to society by providing ongoing relapse prevention skills as well as life skills.
How To Pay for Treatment
Fulton Friendship House accepts many commercial insurance plans, Medicaid and Medicare, military insurance and other state financed health insurance plans. Individuals who qualify are offered a sliding scale fee payment program.
