About San Mateo Medical Center
San Mateo Medical Center provide medication assisted treatment. It's a full service hospital and addiction treatment center in San Mateo, California, so I appreciate it includes emergency care for people of all ages.
Primary care and specialty clinics share the campus with a full service hospital.
Emergency Department MAT Team
MAT team members work in the emergency department at San Mateo Medical Center. I found that naltrexone and buprenorphine are among the medications in that medication assisted treatment.
The emergency department stays open all week, day and night, so you can be seen when you can't come on a weekday. Psychiatric emergency care is available in that same department, along with medical emergency care.
The Integrated Behavioral Health team includes licensed clinicians, certified health coaches and social workers. Brief cognitive behavioral therapy for anxiety, depression and stress is offered through Integrated Behavioral Health.
Addiction Treatment Programs
An adult program in California uses various therapeutic methods to treat a person who is dependent on an addictive substance. Individuals aged 18 and older are eligible for treatment, which focuses on breaking the cycle of addiction and learning how to maintain sober living.
When a person is struggling with addiction, their actions and emotions may not be rational. Cognitive behavioral therapy in California helps individuals understand better why they feel and act certain ways and how those emotions and actions can lead to substance abuse.
Seniors face unique challenges that may contribute to substance use disorder and co-occurring disorders. Elderly rehab in California is designed to address these challenges to provide relevant and safe treatment for seniors.
Typically, a young adult program in California can guide individuals from detox, through initial treatment, and extends to aftercare. Treatment gives young adults what they need to reset their lives and move to the next stage of life free from addiction.
Levels of Care
Unlike outpatient drug rehab, clients receiving inpatient rehab in California reside at the facility for the duration of the program. The length of stay may range from two weeks to 18 months or more, depending on the client's needs and the program’s design.
When you choose outpatient rehab in California, you will meet with a counselor and attend support group meetings. The focus will be on restructuring attitudes and thoughts to reduce cravings and develop skills to prevent relapse. The length of time in outpatient rehab varies by individual, based on their recovery needs.
When you have a co-occurring disorder, it is essential to treat both your addiction and the mental health disorder. California dual diagnosis treatment provides this type of multidisciplinary approach, for improved recovery outcomes.
