About BAART Programs Oakland
Near Vantage Point Park in Oakland, California, you’ll find one of BAART Program’s many outpatient substance use treatment clinics. As an organization, BAART has been dedicated to providing effective and accessible treatments for opioid use disorders (OUDs) for nearly fifty years. Each one of their clinics offers a safe, judgement free space where you can get access to their compassionate and evidence based care.
Their treatment program revolves primarily around medication assisted treatment (MAT), which they make as accessible as possible by accepting patients covered by Medi-Cal. They also offer discounted rates to underinsured and uninsured persons. Another helpful part of their services is that their phone line is available 24/7, allowing you to call in and set up an appointment whenever you need to.
A Tailored Approach to Medication Assisted Treatment
Within their MAT program, they can offer either Methadone or Buprenorphine prescriptions. Both of these medications help reduce opiate cravings and drastically decrease the severity of withdrawal symptoms, but they do have different strengths, weaknesses and applications. By offering both, BAART has the flexibility to tailor their medication assisted treatment to meet your specific needs and help keep you focused on your recovery.
Offering Personalized Support
BAART offers individual counseling and a host of additional services to help you overcome your addiction and addictive habits. Your counselor will work closely with you to develop strategies and set goals to help you achieve and maintain long-term sobriety. This can also help them identify if any of their other services (including case management, medical testing and assessment, and specialized pregnancy treatment) can help you.
