Salvation Army Harbor Light
About Salvation Army Harbor Light
The Salvation Army’s Harbor Light facility provides sub acute detox, residential and outpatient substance use disorder treatment in Monroe, Michigan. It’s in a semi-secluded rural corner near Sandy Creek. Adult males and females are able to receive services as long as they are physically and mentally able to participate in the treatment program. The organization receives federal, state and local funding in order to provide support for their programs.
Before you begin treatment, you’ll receive a physical exam and go through a drug screening. This helps the staff see where you stand medically and physically, as well as see which substances are in your system. With this information gathered, they will be able to refer to the correct level of care based on your needs. Your care is going to be tailored to make sure that your specific needs are being met.
If you are in need of detox, you will begin your recovery journey in their sub acute detox unit. The length of stay averages between three to five days. Medication assisted treatment (MAT) will be available to help you ease your withdrawal symptoms and cravings for substances. They offer FDA approved medications such as Suboxone and Vivitrol.
Once you complete your detox stay, you’ll be able to continue receiving treatment in their residential program. The average length of stay in residential treatment is between 30-90 days. The length of stay will be determined on your needs and meeting your treatment goals. You’ll attend individual, group and family therapy. If you would like, they also offer spiritual counseling that can be incorporated into your specific treatment plan.
Outpatient programs will also be available to you. What stood out to me is that they offer a flexible schedule that includes daytime, evening and weekend sessions. I like the variety as you’ll be able to continue on with your daily responsibilities but still receive treatment.
