About Kingsboro Addiction Treatment Center
Ten of the 70 beds at Kingsboro Addiction Treatment Center are for medically supervised withdrawal, at its detox center in Brooklyn, New York. It’s one of 12 addiction treatment centers that New York State runs directly through the Office of Addiction Services and Supports, and it takes adults 18 and over.
What Happens During Detox Here?
Detox at Kingsboro happens on an inpatient detox unit, and the team around it is a medical one: psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, nurses and addiction counselors. Withdrawal symptoms can change quickly, and medical staff on the unit means someone can respond to what they see.
Can You Get Medication for Withdrawal?
If withdrawal is what you’re dreading, medication is part of how it’s handled at Kingsboro. The program uses opioid medications during detox and in the treatment that follows, including methadone, buprenorphine and naltrexone, which is what medication assisted detox looks like in practice. Those medications ease the symptoms, which shapes the first days.
What Comes After Detox?
Detox leads into rehabilitation beds at Kingsboro, 50 for men and 10 for women, and the team refers people on for ongoing treatment afterward. Plus, there’s an alumni association for people who have been through the program.
Fees here are based on what a person can pay, and no one is turned away for being unable to pay. OASAS centers admit New York State residents from any county, so you don’t have to live in Brooklyn.
