About Journey to Hope Health and Healing Inc

The Journey is certified as a Center of Excellence by the State of Rhode Island Department of Behavioral Healthcare, Developmental Disabilities and Hospitals. (BHDDH). Its dedicated and experienced team—including Board Certified Physicians and Trained Therapists—provides the support and individually tailored treatment that guides each individual on their own journey to recovery.

Opioid dependence and other forms of addiction are real medical conditions—ones we know how to treat effectively.  This epidemic impacts people of all ages, ethnic groups and educational levels.  It is society-wide.  The good news is that as more people come to understand that opioid dependence is a disease and not a personal failure, more people are seeking treatment.

At the Journey, we know from our experience that people can and do recover.  The key is getting into treatment—before it is too late.  If you or a family member, friend or colleague are struggling with addiction, contact us today. You will never be alone on this Journey.

Policies

• For the first two months of treatment, patients are required to attend the clinic daily. Once stability is achieved, those in compliance with all program rules are eligible for incrementally increasing take home medication doses that allows for less frequent clinic visits.
• We work very hard to keep patients in treatment. Research has shown that the longer patients are in treatment, the less the chance of relapse. However, if patients are continually non-compliant with treatment rules, and all therapeutic interventions have been exhausted, we will offer to transfer the patient to another program if a different level of care is warranted. We seldom terminate a patient from treatment, except in the case of threats or violence.
• Federal and state laws require random urine tests for all patients in Methadone treatment.
