About CleanSlate Outpatient Addiction Medicine
CleanSlate Outpatient Addiction Medicine in Worcester, Massachusetts, provides outpatient treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) and alcohol use disorder (AUD) using medication assisted treatment (MAT). MAT is an evidence based method that supports recovery using FDA approved meds alongside counseling and behavioral therapy. This integrated approach encourages holistic healing and lasting recovery.
CleanSlate can help you heal if you’re struggling with opioid misuse, alcoholism and co-occurring mental issues. The facility is located in an easily accessible and metropolitan area of Worcester.
Their MAT program offers various medication options to suit different symptom levels. You’ll first undergo a medical assessment during your initial visit and work with your care team to create a personalized treatment plan. This plan includes suitable medicine for your unique condition. Some of the available choices are Suboxone®, buprenorphine, Vivitrol® and Brixadi™.
These meds help you manage withdrawal by reducing symptoms and curbing cravings. Subsequently you’ll undergo counseling to sort out the psychological aspects of your addiction. Counseling helps you uncover the root cause of substance misuse, work through past trauma and build healthy coping skills to manage thoughts, feelings and actions.
CleanSlate offers specialized treatment for pregnant women with OUD to support both maternal health and fetal development. This is one of their most essential services. This program is suitable if you’re expecting or have recently given birth. It addresses your personal issues with pregnancy, reproductive health, trauma and substance use disorders. You’ll work with medical and mental health professionals as well as addiction specialists to create an individualized recovery plan. This ensures you receive the therapeutic support and medical care necessary for holistic healing.
Some people struggle with multiple substance use. They might use opioids alongside alcohol and benzos. CleanSlate offers poly-substance treatment to help such people achieve sustainable recovery. The facility even treats cannabis and stimulant use. They also provide Hepatitis C screening and treatment. This is especially important for individuals who share needles, as they have a higher risk of contracting the virus.
Care coordination is an essential component of their broader recovery program. Part of this involves connection to community resources that support your ongoing recovery efforts. These include transitional or permanent housing, job placement as well as food and transportation assistance. The facility also provides ongoing support for as long as you need it.
They can link you to 12 Step programs and support groups to maintain sobriety. The best part is that these integrative services are very affordable. They even accept Medicaid, Medicare and many commercial insurances.
