About Addison Gilbert Hospital
If you’re looking for complete addiction recovery for adults, seniors, and adolescents in The Bay State, you can go to Addison Gilbert Hospital. Depending on your needs, you can either stay onsite for inpatient (IP) treatment or come in for sessions. You'll find 'em in Gloucester, Massachusetts.
Their options for adults start with detox overseen by medical staff. They’ll be on hand throughout to give you addiction medication to take away withdrawal symptoms. You’ll be kept as comfortable as possible. After detox, you’ll get counseling and therapy. They’ll work with you to come up with an aftercare plan to meet your needs.
For adults in outpatient (OP) care, they offer medication maintenance and therapy. If you’re involved with the courts for driving under the influence, they can help you. They’ll take you through what you need to learn. They’ll help you meet all the court requirements to get your driving license reinstated.
They run a special track for adolescents in the afternoons that doesn’t interfere with their schooling. There’s a structured program they follow that includes addiction education and group therapy. Teen boys can get residential care. They assist some teens charged by the drug court for nonviolent crimes.
What I appreciate about them is their substance use recovery program aimed at expecting and parenting women. You’ll get pregnancy-safe addiction medication. They look after you before and after your baby is born. They’ll teach you about looking after a newborn who’s been exposed to drugs or alcohol. You’ll get individual counseling and group therapy. You’ll connect with other women who are facing similar challenges to you.
