About McLaren Oakland

McLaren Oakland’s hospital in Pontiac, Michigan provides several primary and specialty care services, including emergency care. While they don’t offer addiction treatment or detox at this particular location, you may be able to get a referral to another McLaren location that does, such as Connected Health in Okemos or their Flint location.

 

Emergency Treatment for Overdose or Other Addiction Crises

Emergency care could also serve as a gateway to substance abuse treatment if you arrive with a SUD related emergency. Otherwise, you can incorporate their other health services into your addiction recovery as needed.

Medicaid, Medicare, and other insurance plans are accepted at this location. Additionally, they offer financial assistance to those who qualify.

 

Primary Care and Addiction Treatment in One Health System

While not the treatment itself, primary care plays an important role in your addiction recovery. It can start as a referral point to a dedicated substance use disorder treatment program, but it’s so much more than that. You’ll want a primary care provider working closely with your addiction care team to track those other areas of your physical health, as the information they gather will greatly influence your recovery plan.

Addressing seemingly unrelated health concerns can also have a profound impact on your treatment and recovery. If, for example, you cope with stress by misusing drugs or alcohol, diagnosing and addressing health problems that lead to relapse is important. As long as you’re open with your PCP about your addiction history, they can use that to deliver more effective care.

 

Easily Accessed

A big benefit of this location is its proximity to the Pontiac Transportation Center downtown. If you can reach Pontiac, you can use public transport to travel most of the distance to the hospital. Another plus: you can always catch a ride after treatment to explore the city proper. 

 

SUD Care Nearby

If you do arrive at this facility seeking addiction care, you may get referred to their Flint location. They offer a range of drug and alcohol addiction treatment programs. Interestingly, they also specialize in women’s health, meaning you can get female centered addiction care and pregnancy addiction care if you need it.
