Northpointe Council The First Step Center treats guests with substance addiction in Niagara Falls, New York. They are open for assistance 24/7 to help you when you need it most.
Medical and Non-Medical Detox Options
The detox center has seven medically supervised withdrawal beds and 17 stabilization beds. Your team includes medical, nursing and counseling staff all working together on your behalf.
You have the option of medical or non-medical detox in a compassionate, structured setting where they monitor you for safety and comfort. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is available for adults 18 and older to help lessen withdrawal symptoms and reduce drug cravings for those struggling with alcohol or opioid addiction. They can refer you to their outpatient treatment program once you complete detox.
Specialized Recovery Programs
They have open access hours for their outpatient clinics. An addiction clinician is available Monday through Friday from 9 am to 12 pm for guests needing urgent or immediate support.
Alongside The First Step Center, Northpointe Council also provides a criminal justice system aspect that helps guests referred by the courts. This service may reduce incarceration rates within local correction centers.
Northpointe also has a methadone maintenance program, allowing clients help with opioid symptoms. This service may be used after detox for an extended time.
Since addiction affects our loved ones, they have family and couples counseling to help mend relationships and offer support for boundaries and communication methods.
