Individualized Treatment without Judgment

One of the nice things about the staff at the treatment center is that they offer treatment without judgment. They recognize that addiction is a disease like any other and not a moral failing. Clients are offered individualized treatment plans that include MAT and therapy to address underlying mental health issues.

Specialized Care for Pregnant Women

The treatment team works with pregnant women to help them withdraw from substances that can be harmful to their growing babies. Pregnant women in treatment programs are more likely to get prenatal care, which makes birth outcomes better.

The staff works hard to remove the stigma of addiction and assist women with getting the care they need for themselves and their unborn children. They use Suboxone for pregnant women, which eases withdrawal and allows women to get the prenatal care they need while living a normal life without cravings. Babies born to women using Suboxone are at reduced risk of neonatal abstinence syndrome compared to those born to women using illicit opioids.

Hepatitis C Screening and Treatment

Another unique service offered through the clinic is Hepatitis C testing and treatment. They have a cure rate of 95% for this dangerous liver infection. Testing and treatment are covered by commercial insurance and Medicaid and are available to anyone in the clinic’s addiction treatment programs.
