About Merakey
Merakey East Armat Street is a satellite location providing adult behavioral health care in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is part of the greater Merakey network which offers mental health, physical healthcare and addiction services in California, Louisiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Virginia. While substance use disorder (SUD) is one of the core services provided at Merakey, this network also provides care for autism, intellectual and developmental disabilities, veterans, children and families, foster care, pharmacy and aging services.
Extensive Outpatient Care/h3>
Addiction services at Merakey tackle alcohol, opioid, drug and behavioral addictions as well as any underlying mental health challenges that might contribute to them. I found that there are several outpatient programs designed to offer more or less structure depending on your needs. While the intensive outpatient program (IOP) requires more in person time at the facilities, the standard outpatient program allows for more flexibility.
Medication Assisted Treatment/h3>
If your addiction is severe, you’ll want help to achieve sobriety safely. The medication assisted treatment (MAT) program at Merakey provides closely monitored medications such as methadone, suboxone, or Vivitrol to help you manage withdrawal symptoms while lowering the risk of relapse.
Family Rehousing Program/h3>
Although not offered directly through the Armat Street location, Merakey does provide a Philadelphia Community Treatment Team Family Rehousing Program that works to help adults that are struggling with homelessness as a result of addiction. The program helps participants reintegrate back into their prior lives. I like that this includes reconnecting them with loved ones and involves family therapy sessions, MAT care as needed, home visits and education or employment support to boost self sufficiency.
