About Staten Island University Hospital – Methadone Clinic
Staten Island University Hospital’s Methadone Clinic is an opioid treatment program in Staten Island, New York. As a hospital-affiliated outpatient clinic, it provides treatment for adults and serves diverse populations including veterans, court-referred clients, pregnant and postpartum women and individuals with co-occurring mental health needs.
Opioid Treatment Programs
Clients begin with an assessment to determine eligibility for methadone-based treatment. The FDA-approved medication has been proven to reduce cravings and withdrawal while supporting long-term recovery.
The clinic operates as a certified Opioid Treatment Program (OTP) under New York State oversight, ensuring structured dosing, medical monitoring and continuity of care through its affiliation with Northwell Health.
Recovery for Diverse Populations
In addition to daily or regular medication dispensing, participants receive individual counseling, group therapy and substance use disorder education to address the root causes of addiction. Clients may learn to change negative thinking patterns, develop healthier coping skills, and avoid relapse issues after treatment.
The program also offers HIV/AIDS education and support services, telemedicine options for eligible clients and specialized care for individuals managing chronic pain or trauma histories.
