About Monarch House
Monarch House is a residential recovery home in New Bedford, Massachusetts that provides specialized substance use treatment for women ages 18 and older.
They're operated by High Point Treatment Center and offer long-term care for addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders through a gender-specific lens. Their approach focuses on empowering female residents with the tools needed for sustainable sobriety within a structured 27 bed community setting.
Comprehensive Residential Treatment for Women
The program offers an extended stay ranging from three to nine months to provide ample time for deep healing and skill acquisition. This duration supports a thorough curriculum that includes transitional housing options and coordination with legal or social services when necessary.
Therapeutic activities utilize evidence based modalities and trauma informed care. I appreciate that sessions are designed to build coping mechanisms, improve daily living skills and foster relapse prevention strategies through both individual and group counseling.
Medication-Assisted Treatment Support
Monarch House is inclusive of clients recovering from opioid use disorders who require medication-assisted Treatment (MAT). While medications are prescribed externally and the facility coordinates closely with medical providers to support medication monitoring as part of a holistic recovery plan.
Access to Care and Admissions
This facility serves adult women seeking full residential support. I found that payment options include Medicaid, various government funded programs, and self-pay arrangements with potential payment assistance available.
Addiction Treatment Programs
Most alcohol rehab in Massachusetts consists of individual counseling and group therapy sessions, which address mental and emotional concerns that are contributing to alcohol use. Treatment helps participants make changes to maintain sobriety and prevent relapse.
Addiction is a highly complex problem, and drug rehab in Massachusetts is often necessary to address it. These programs treat physical, mental, and relational issues that are involved. Treatment empowers individuals to manage these issues without the use of drugs.
Levels of Care
The first step to a drug-free future is detox. This involves slowly and safely ridding your body of all addictive substances, under 24/7 supervision. This is typically the initial phase of drug rehab in Massachusetts.
As the most intensive treatment setting, inpatient drug rehab in Massachusetts treatment involves 24/7 supervised care. At this level of care, you typically participate in individual, group, and family therapy sessions, and you may receive medication and additional recreational therapies.
Massachusetts outpatient rehab does not have a defined timeline. The program is tailored to meet your recovery needs, and may last 90 days or a year or more. During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.
