About Beloit Comprehensive Treatment Center
Beloit Comprehensive Treatment Center provides outpatient treatment in Beloit, Wisconsin. Adults 18 years of age and older can receive treatment for opioid use disorder. Insurance is accepted including TRICARE, Medicaid and Medicare. The option of self pay is available for anyone who is uninsured. The organization is also state and publicly funded.
Before you begin treatment, you must be in a withdrawal state for 24-48 hours of being substance free. You will then complete a thorough assessment. The assessment will help identify your specific needs so that a personalized treatment plan can be developed. You’ll go over your substance use history, medical history, family history and your treatment goals. This ensures that all your treatment needs will be met for a successful long term recovery.
Your intake appointment will take between two and four hours. One of the center's physicians will conduct a complete physical exam. The exam will also include drug testing and tuberculosis testing. If you have proof that you have had a tuberculosis test in the last two years, then you can wave the test.
Women will need to take a pregnancy test. If you are pregnant, you must not be in a state of withdrawal when you arrive for your intake appointment. You’ll need a letter from your OBGYN stating that they have approved you to receive treatment. They will be able to coordinate your care with your OBGYN as long as you sign the release of information form. I like that they will help you make arrangements if you don’t have an OBGYN.
Following your assessment, you are going to meet with a member of their medical staff team. They will help determine whether methadone or a different medication should be included along with your treatment plan. The four FDA approved medications they choose from are methadone, Suboxone, naltrexone and buprenorphine. The purpose of these medications is to help ease your withdrawal symptoms and reduce cravings so that you may be able to focus on your recovery journey.
Along with medication assisted treatment (MAT), you’ll be attending counseling services. In individual counseling, you’ll reflect on how addiction has impacted your life. You’ll also learn to make changes that are healthy to support your recovery. In group counseling, you’ll develop relapse prevention strategies and practice health communication skills. You’ll also see that you are not alone on this journey, as you connect and learn from your peers' experiences.
