About AMS of Delaware
People 18 or older, with opioid use disorder for a year or longer, can be admitted for opioid treatment at AMS of Delaware.
It's an addiction treatment center in Rehoboth Beach, and you can visit by appointment or as a walk-in.
An intake can happen the same day, and medication assisted treatment doesn't require a wait.
Opioid Care in Rehoboth Beach
AMS of Delaware offers methadone (a medication for opioid use disorder), Suboxone and Vivitrol to medically assist treatment.
Buprenorphine may be part of the plan, as a film or a tablet. The Maintenance to Abstinence Program runs approximately two years, and it's part of medication assisted treatment.
Intensive outpatient care at this Rehoboth Beach site runs four days each week for 2.25 hours a day and lasts eight weeks. A schedule like that allows clients more freedom and flexibility.
People who are early in addiction can detox here, and trained medical personnel supervise it. In the Outpatient Program, family joins one weekly group with the patient, and there's a second weekly group without the patient.
The Delaware Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services has licensed the center's aftercare. At intake the center asks for a valid photo ID and an insurance card if applicable.

Levels of care
- Detox
- Medical detox here is for people early in addiction who want to come off addictive substances. Trained medical personnel supervise that process.
- Outpatient
- Less intensive counseling here runs on an individual basis, a group basis or a family basis from qualified professional staff.
- Aftercare support
- Aftercare at AMSDE is licensed through Delaware Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services. The focus is cognitive behavioral principles plus relapse prevention.
- Intensive outpatient (IOP)
- When home life is steady but weekly visits fall short, intensive outpatient care fills the gap with more hours and more structure.
- Intervention services
- Intervention services include care for the family itself, not just for the person who is struggling. Whatever the outcome, families in Delaware deserve guidance and support through a hard stretch in their lives.
- Co-occurring disorders
- When care begins, an assessment looks at both the substance use disorder and the mental health condition before any treatment starts.
