About Health Care Resource Centers New Bedford
Health Care Resource Centers New Bedford in New Bedford, Massachusetts, serves men and women who are ready to begin their recovery from an opioid use dependency. This clinic offers services through an outpatient setting and provides services such as medication assisted treatment and counseling services.
Medication assisted treatment using FDA approved medications like methadone and buprenorphine can help you start your opioid use recovery off on a strong foot. These medications are used in detoxification but are also used to help you manage cravings that arise as you progress through your recovery. As an evidence based treatment approach, medication assisted treatment is known for its effectiveness in helping individuals recover from opioid dependency.
When you reach a level of stabilization, your medication assisted treatment is supplemented with counseling sessions. These individual and group counseling sessions are important because they help you reflect on your recovery and relationship with opioid use. You’ll learn how to identify triggers and how to manage stressors when they arise. You’ll also gain key skills that can make an impact on your sobriety even months and years after your recovery treatments.
